Good Morning Friends...

Today Toni is our host at Friends of Flourishes. She is challenging us to use Silver.  

I have embossed a silver background to go with the homespun image from the Stitched For You set.

A couple little borders and the the sentiment finish it off. The background is so bold thought

I would keep it simple! Come on over and join us!!

 rose leaves so chlorotic it it! A lttle embossing, a die cut and its a quick layered card.

Good Morning Friends, today it is my turn to host the Friends of Flourishes Challenge. 

It is a color challenge and since green and purple are my favorite colors that is the 

Challenge for today!! I have used two of our new release stamps, from the Thistle Set

 and the Tartan Plaid. Your can find them and all the other released in stamps

 and digis, so check out the store here. Although it doesnt show I stitched the plaid piece

 onto embossed background. Colored and cut out my flowers ,

 added the bow and sentiment. I love this new Thistle set, it has some very pretty

 corner pieces too. Of course you can take liberties and color those thistles any

 color you like too!  My teammates have some very pretty

 inspiration for you too. 

We would be delighted if you would join us this week.
