Timeless Tuesday 130 ~ Guest Designer


Howdy all! Happy Tuesday! It's time to join the Flourishes team again today for another fabulous Timeless Tuesday challenge again!

This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge is all about FRUIT! Yes... fruit! We want to see you use a fruit image or paper with fruit in the design on this week's creation! Super fun!

One of the best things about summer is the fresh berries we have grow here in the mountains... especially the raspberries! So that's what I chose to show case on my card this week. The gorgeous images and sentiment all are from the Flourishes "Berry Sweet" stamp set. Here's my card using fruit...

Life Without Love...

supplies: stamps, Flourishes; inks, Copic, Memento; cardstock, Flourishes, Bazzill; patterned paper, Jillibean Soup; embossing folder, Cuttlebug; corner punch, EK Success; die cut shapes, Spellbinders; other, thread.

Here's a close up of my raspberry image. I used Memento ink to stamp on my Flourishes Classic White Cardstock and then coloured in my image using my Copic markers.

Since we're helping to sneak peek with the new release "Wild for Watermelon" set, the prize will be different this week. Participants will have the chance to get double-entered if they use Flourishes stamps, but you may NOT combine your card with other challenges and you must have a direct link back to our challenge in their blog post and/or gallery upload. Also, we're going to relax the "you must leave a comment for all the designers" rule for this challenge. You will still have until Monday the 15th at 6:00 p.m. EST to enter the contest. The winner will get the whole new release!

For more inspiration, please visit the other Friends of Flourishes blog team members…

Come and join us this week! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a fabulous Tuesday!
