Flourishes Timeless Tuesday

Hello everyone!!!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend??? Ours was fun, but unfortunately our little Mimi got sick Sunday night with a high fever :( !!! We went to see the doctor yesterday and she was given antibiotics right away!!! Unfortunately all the funky diseases are floating around in our schools again and it was just a matter of time till we get it!!! At least I get to stay home with her and I'm able to work from home today...plus lots of snuggling times are in the forecast :) !!!

We have an easy Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge ~ FTTC85 going on this week!!! Dee is the challenge host and she is challenging us to create a *CELEBRATION* card!!! Celebrate anyway you like! You can choose any theme ~ baby, birthday, friendship, holiday, or come up with you own reason to celebrate! Hope you come and play along!!!

Now that I'm working in a large office I need tons of *birthday cards*!!! Matter of fact October is another busy one!!!


I used the beautiful sunflower image from the Sunflowers Set. The sentiment is from the Many Sentiments Set. The sunflower was inked in Memento Black and colored with Copic Markers ~  Y15, Y17, Y19, Y35, E27, E37, E39, E47, G24, YR19, R27 and Colorless Blender.  I added two different DP's from the PinkPaislee Collection. According to some of the extra challenges I played I added some *Faux Stitching*. The awesome Lace Ribbon in the BG was given to me by my friend Judy.  I topped the card off with some piercingDazzling Diamond Glitter and some Chocolate Pearls.  

Now it's time to check out the rest of the team ~  Barbara, Betty, Cindy, Dee and Maki!!!

Here some fun ideas I've added to my card :
Stampin' Royalty #37 ~ Stitching
Secret Crafter #101 ~ Anything Goes
Sweet Stampin' #44 ~ Stitching
Scrappekammeret #15 ~ Use two different kind of DP's and stamped text
Stempel Maggie #19 ~ Autumn Colors
Paper Sundaes #36 ~ Fall Colors
Totally PaperCrafts  #34 ~ Happy Birthday

Have a fabulous week and as always thank you for stopping by!!! Hugs ~S~
