FTTC #168 Week 2

Hello blogging friends, this is week 2 of being the May Guest Designer at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge. I hope you'll play along with this challenge for a chance to win a $10.00 gift code to use at the Flourishes store.  Silke is our hostess this week and she has chosen "pink as the main color" for the challenge.  Being a girly girl this is right up my alley. The hardest part was deciding which stamp set to use.

This card was made with the moth orchid stamp from the appropriately named set "Orchids". The image was stamped twice, colored with Copic markers then fussy cut. Some Copic coloring was lightly added to the backs of the fussy cut pieces, since parts of it would be visible through the acrylic. Both fussy cut pieces were run through the sticker machine. I cut two ovals one pink which was embossed and one white. Gold was applied around each opening then the piece of acrylic was sandwiched between them.  A few pearls were attached directly to the acrylic. A small bud from the second stamping was placed on the center of the bow. The stick pin was made from items purchased in the jewelry section at the local craft store.

The verse was stamped on the interior of the card so that it showed through the acrylic when the card was closed.

Grab some papers and play along. You don't have to use Flourishes stamps to enter the challenge. If you win you can buy some! Check out the great samples from the Flourishes Design Team.
