ONE LAYER
CARD
The challenge this week is to
USE A
FLOURISH
Chrissie and Mandi have once again created some gorgeous inspiration for us all. So here is my little card for this week:-
I don't know about you, but I just LOVE flourishes and have a few in my collection! This particular corner flourish is by Fancy Pants and is in a collection called Pollen Dust. Its a large 12 x 12 set that I got some years back - it cost a LOT of money but just for this stamp alone I just HAD to have it!! I thought rather than stamping in black that I would for a change use my Versafine Deep Lagoon. I also wanted to create more of a "whimsical" feel to the card so added the bird cage and little birdies (Craftwork Cards Gilded Cages). The sentiment is Papermania.
Of course a card of mine wouldn't be without any sparkle so I added some Glamour Dust here, there and everywhere to the flourish!
Well enjoy the rest of your day, I shall be back around later to leave some comments for my fellow LIMettes!
Take care and until next time...
Happy Crafting

Hi Tina
Thisa looks superb! that flourihs is fabulous. I know the set you mean, I intended getting it some years ago, btu, didn't Maybe i need to remedy that!
I love the addition of the bird cage, but, it would work on it;s own too. Imagine in gold on black...oh I need to go purchase!!! lol

The flourish is fab and I love the colour. I think the bird cage and birds give that finishing touch. Lynn x
Wow, this is stunning. I love the flourish you've used. I would spend a LOT of money on that one also if I saw it! The colour choice is great, and I love the little birds dotted around, particularly the one sitting on the sentiment!
I have that sentiment set from Papermania, but never get a crisp impression from it - what's your secret?
