Color Q and another Flourishes Sneak Peek!!!

Hello again and happy Tuesday!

If you missed my earlier card...feel free to view it HERE!

My second card is featuring another idea with the sneak peek of the new FLOURISHES SEPTEMBER RELEASE! This set is called Poinsettia and Pine and I know you will love it this set!!!



The colors were inspired by this weeks Color Q #154 and the layout is from the Retro Sketch #28......

 

My card started out with the Flourishes Classic White CS. I decided to score the second layer and the third layer was inked with the sentiment from this set. The sentiment and the poinsettia image were inked in Memento Tuxedo Black. The poinsettia image was colored with these Copic Markers ~ R12, R22, R89, Y15, Y21, YG11, G21 and Colorless Blender. The Ribbon is from the new Color Made Easy Pistachio Collection. At last I added the Kaiser Pearls...voila!



Please make sure to stop by the Color Q Blog to see all the fabulous ideas the team had and we hope you'll have a chance to play along as well. I'll be back with another Flourishes card tomorrow!!!

                                                                 Hugs, ~Silke~
