Flourishes Timeless Tuesday!!!

Yeahh- it's Tuesday again!!!

Today Dee Jackson is our host. Not only is she the host, but also our *Birthday Girl*!!!

Happy Birthday my sweet friend!!! I hope you will have a special day??? Sending you a big birthday hug :)!!!

Stop by Dee's blog and wish her a *Happy Birthday*!!! Dee is also recovering from some health issues, so make sure to send her some extra *Get Well Wishes* along the way too!!!

The Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge is about creating a *BIRTHDAY CARD* or project!!! I'm always in need of one....and the card I created for today is actually for our birthday girl :)!!!

I used three different Flourishes Set's for this card.

The main flower image is from the *Thinking of You* Set. The center image is from the *Vintage Wallpaper* and the sentiment is from the Sweet Violets Set.

I mainly used Groovy Guava CS and Ink. I had to smuggled a little bit of Kraft Cardstock behind the main flower image.

To dress it all up I used a matching Satin Ribbon I found at Michael's, the SU Eyelet Border Punch and some Pearls. To add a little interest I scored two lines and placed the sentiment right in between.

Swing by the Flourishes Blog to see all the Samples and on how you can play along to win a prize!?! Remember you do not have to own a Flourishes Stamp in order to play along.....just play and have fun :). Use the keyword FTTC15 to download on SCS!!!

Thank you for stopping by!!!
