FLOURISHES SEPTEMBER RELEASE DAY 5!!!

Happy TGIF and welcome to our last day of the Flourishes September Release!

We hope you have enjoyed all the sneak peeks so far???

Today we are showing you another fabulous Set....PEACE & JOY!!!


This Set was illustrated by Becky Fleck. It offers two main images plus tow accent stamps to created just the most unique holiday creations. I know you will love the flourishy swirls and the elegant look of this fabulous Set.

And, what's more fun? You can find the coordinating cut file HERE for perfectly cut swirls! Can you say stunning? Speaking of cut files, we have some EXCITING news to share! Four out of the five sets released this week have a Silhouette Cameo cut file available as well. AND, for those folks who asked for SVG files so that they could also use our cut files in other digital cutting machines, we say -- you asked, we answered! We now have all of our cut files available in an SVG format as well! Just click HERE to visit these files in the Flourishes Store! These digital downloads are purchased from the store and upon completion of your order, you’ll receive a link to download your cut files. We think these will add so much fun when creating!

Here is my card.....



I could not help myself, but to go for the traditional red and green theme again. As always I started out with the Flourishes Classic White CS. The second layer was *scored*. The image itself in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with these Copic Markers ~ R29, G82, G94 and Colorless Blender. I absolutely love this wide May Arts Red/White Ribbon and the Silver Metallic Trim. At last I added a Green Button and the Red Kaiser Rhinestones.
