So go to the Flourishes Gallery and find a card or project that inspires you
Ho, ho, ho... howdy everyone! It's Timeless Tuesday challenge time over at Flourishes! My favourite day of the week without doubt.
This week's challenge, FTTC179, comes from the lovely, Mona! Mona has challenged us to create a Christmas themed card or project this week! Here is what I came up with...
Get Cozy
I chose to feature the Flourishes' Snow Wonderfulstamp collection this week. This stamp set contains two large winter themed focal images and 6 different sentiments. Each of the large shapes fits the Spellbinder's corresponding die, the Tailor-Made Classic Keyhole Die, especially made for this Flourishes stamp set.
I coloured my images using some wonderful Christmas colour palettes from the following Copic collections:
I prepared two cards this week. I just couldn't resist using both fabulous images!
Stay Cozy & Warm
To create the glittery effect, I stamped and coloured my images, then I covered with with Soowang tape and then sprinkled very fine glitter over top. It gives that focal image just that bit of sparkle and shine!!

For this week's challenge I chose to create a criss-cross card to pop my recipe card into...
What's Cookin'?
Once you remove the blue belly-band, this is the recipe card tucked inside! It features the stamps from the Garden Fresh collection. Aren't they delicious??!!
I was inspired to colour my beets and carrots to look like these gorgeous veggies...

3 different mists (Tattered Angels; "Suede", "Marshmallow" & "Iridescent Gold"
I began building my focal image by stamping and heat embossing my butterflies over top of a piece of Flourishes Classic White Cardstock. Then I inked my entire piece of cardstock using my 3 ink colours; orange, teal and brown.
I stamped my 3 different ferns over top of my inked background and then misted my 3 separate colours over that. I added a spritz of water and even added some tiny, tiny flakes of white embossing powder over my image.

Here's my BOLD & Beautiful card for this first noon-time challenge...
Friend
For my card today I began by creating a vivid back ground. I first grabbed my damask stamp from the Fanciful Flourishes collection and some Flourishes Classic White Cardstock. I inked it up with Versamark ink, stamped my damasks and embossed then with black embossing powder. Then I used a variety of Ranger Distress inks and inked up the negative space.
Above my greeting I used the mid-sized floral sprig from the Summer Blossoms stamp set. I the following Copic collections to colour in my image...

This week's fabulous challenge is from the very talented, Denise. Denise has challenged us this week to create a project with the sentiment as the focus. Here is my sentiment focused creation for this week's challenge...
Take Time
For my sentiment, I chose this beautiful verse from the Orchids stamp collection and stamped it on Flourishes Classic White cardstock using Memento "Black Tuxedo" ink. I mounted my sentiment on one of the lovely label shaped stamps from the Country Charms stamp set stamped using Ranger's "Worn Lipstick" Distress ink..
I even used the gorgeous medallion from the Medallion Motif stamp collection to stamp on my die cut background.
