This week our challenge comes from the super talented Denise Marzec! Denise is challenging us today to create a project with the colour red (FTTC208). See... super easy!!
Red Bouquet
I began my card this week by first loading up my Flourishes Winter Bouquet SVG File for my digital die cutting machine. I cut the largest file using Flourishes Classic White Cardstock. Then I stamped the large bouquet image using Memento "Black Tuxedo" ink into my die cut.
I coloured my image using a variety of the Flourishes Copic Collection sets:
I mounted my pretty bouquet onto of the Flourishes Tailor-made Die, Perfectly Pierced Classic Frames. I used a bit of Ranger "Fired Brick" Distress Ink to highlight the embossing left by the die.
I finished off the front panel of my card with some Flourishes 'Color Made Easy' "Poppy" cardstock, some "Basque Red" seam binding ribbon, some fun patterned paper and some cool die cuts.
I wanted to incorporate the outside of my card to the inside of my card so I used a few of the same elements of my card front on the inside.
I used the simple greeting of "Congratulations!" from the "Sentimental Favorites" stamp set to finish off the inside.
Come along and play with us this week! Let's see a little RED on your cards and projects. Link up your creations to the Flourishes blog for a chance at winning a little guilt free shopping!

Wow! That is one stunning bouquet of flowers, so vibrant and it just pops with colour - LOVE how you used red this week, Allison!
So pretty, Ally! I like the pop of red against the white, and the way you decorated the inside. Will the challenge be up on the Flourishes blog soon?
