Hey there Flourishes lovers! We're back again for another fabulous Timeless Tuesday Challenge! Hooray!
I'd like to take a moment to welcome the newest member of the Friends of Flourishes Team... Welcome Cheryl Lea! Congrats Cheryl and welcome to the Flourishes family. So glad that you'll be a part of our team.
For this week's challenge, our fantastic hostess Denise Marzec is challenging us...
...to create a card or project that includes some scallops!
(FTTC225)
Super easy this week huh!?! Here is the card I created using some scallops...
I then used a vibrant piece of gorgeous green patterned paper (which if you look closely, has some pretty white scallops on it!) from our 123 Create Kit - "Trail Mix" and die cut it using a scalloped edge die from Spellbinders. This month's kit is jam packed with gorgeous pattern patterns, 2 lush ribbons, some jute twine & pearls, cool wooden buttons and some flashy brads!
I then drew a pencil guideline on my ivory cardstock as to where I was going to position my scalloped green paper so I knew where to stamp. Then I took the two strawberry images from our brand new stamp set, Berry Sweet Frames and some "Rich Cocoa" Memento ink and stamped away!
Then I coloured my strawberry images using the following Copic Collections:
To add some final touches, I stamped the pretty little gingham back ground from the Berry Sweet Frames using some "Pear Tart" Memento ink right along the double scored line I created using my Scor-pal tool. And I added a simple sentiment from the same stamp set to finish right off!
I wrapped the top of my card front using the rich cocoa ribbon, tying the bow with jute string and a fun button which I coloured the inside to match the red of my strawberries; all of which are included in the 123 Create Kit - "Trail Mix". Volia! My card was finished!

So pretty, love the scalloped border!!
Very pretty, love how you used the images in unique positions.
How cute! I like the hanging strawberries. :)
Gorgeous Ally! Love the way the strawberries peek out from beneath the pretty scalloped edge.
I love strawberries. They look great on this card. That scalloped die is fabulous. Well done.
Ally this is darling and yummy all in one. You and I think alike on some stamps I tell you. The gingham stamped at the bottom I totally had at the top like this one a card. HA!!! Oh my goodnes... Ofcourse yours looks way better so I will not post mine now. LOL Your berries look good enough to eat. Fantastic card.
Wow - this is amazing. Such awesome contrast between the berries and the white background. Yum!! LOVE the scalloped top treatment too. So fabulous, Ally!
Very pretty! I love how you used the scallops at the top.
wow I love it!
OMGosh this is pretty! I love all the beautiful strawberries, and that asymmetrical die cut looks fab over them. Thank you so much for the warm welcome. I'm excited about getting to work with such a talented team!
Your design is perfect featuring these preset berries! Really like the contrast of the top and bottom panels!
Allison, I love this layout and how you stamped your strawberries!!! That scallop across the top is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E! Love! Did I say that already? :)
Lovely card Ally, the top border reminds me of the leaves the berries would be hanging from, beautiful colouring of the strawberries too :-)
Ally, I just love your curved scalloped border and how the scrumptious strawberries hang down from behind it! The way you stamped the background frame as a bottom border is brilliant!!
What a sweet card, Allison! :)
Love that curved scallop border and all those beautiful strawberries hanging down! Very creative way to make your border along the bottom!
