Flourishes Timeless Tuesday - FTTC48!!!

Happy Tuesday everyone!!!

Did you all have a nice weekend??? We did...I took the girls for some ice skating fun and enjoyed the company of some friends!!! My kids don't go back to school until Thursday....so we are trying to enjoy the last few days together and trying really hard to get back onto a normal schedule :)  I finally had some time to clean my house yesterday...and prepared for my husbands birthday today!!! Happy Birthday my sweet hubby - love ya!!!

Moving on to today's Flourishes Timeless Tuesday - FTTC48 ......are you ready to play along with us??? Maki is our host and she is challenging us to some awesome colors - Black, Yellow and one extra color of your choice !!!! Sounds awesome doesn't it???

Here is my take on it.......


I used the beautiful A Year in Flowers Calendar Set 3. For the sentiment I used the Many Sentiments Set. The layout is from this VLVJan{10}01 Sketch.

The image was inked in Memento Black and colored with these Copic Markers - Daffodil, Holly and Warm Neutrals Collection. Once I was done coloring I added some Glitter. The So Saffron panel was dry embossed with the Swiss Dot Cuttlebug Folder. I also added some piercing along the right side!!!

Please check all the fabulous sample cards from the team - Betty, Cindy, Dee and Maki.

Have a fun playing along!!!

OCC - Clean and Simple and more cards!!!

Happy New Year everyone!!!

Hope you all had fun celebrating??? I've been a lazy girl, hanging out in my PJ's just stampin' the day away!!! Today I'm getting dressed :) and I'm taking my girls ice skating - wahooo!!!.

Hope you are still off from work and you can join us in this weeks OCC Challenge??? Since it's a new month we also have a new Challenge Host - Joycelyn!!! She is challenging us to create a *CAS - Clean and Simple* card or project - wahoooooo!!!!

First is my OCC CAS card...... I combined it with the ssnotime120 Challenge  - using something NEW.


I bought this Giga Guidelines Set a few weeks ago and didn't get a chance to ink it up yet....!!! As you can tell I kept it super duper simple. The color I used is Basic Gray.

Make sure to stop by the OCC Blog to see all the awesome CAS samples!!!

************************************

My second card is for last weeks C4C17 Sketch Challenge and this weeks C4C18 - Polka Dot Fun. The colors are from last weeks Stamping 411 - Color Challenge #104 - using Rose Red, Apricot Appeal and Certainly Celery.


I had to use my beautiful For All You Do Set from SU again.....if you missed the card I made the other day...click here. I really love this Set :) and I'll use it soon again!!!

***************************************

My third card is for today's IC213 - Design Spirt Studio and this weeks Stampin'B's Challenge - using some Old and New items.

I chose this beautiful Purple Flower Pendant for my inspirtation.


The flower image is an older SAB Stampin' Up Stamp Set called Best Blossom  and it was my first SAB Set I've earned!!!  The sentiment is from the Great Friend Set. 
 
The new item I added is the Button from the SU Playground Design Collection. I finished the card off with some Satin Ribbon and Silver Pearls. Voila!!!

I have lots of SU Stamps for sell.....make sure to check out my list right HERE!!!
