Clearly For You

Is it Friday already, holy moly this week flew by!  Today the design team from Flourishes is showing cards using clear card stock, for our Friday Focus.  The clear card stock available from Flourishes is very very thick and sturdy, its not flimsy like acetate.  Its fun to use something different every once in a while for a card base.  The flowers are from the Summer Blossoms stamp set, after I stamped and colored them in, I cut them out & mounted them on the card using foam tape.  I finally got my hands on some new Wisteria Basic Grey paper, boy is that one pretty pack of paper!  Head on over to the Flourishes Newsletter to see today's sneak on the Finishing Touches hardware...one of them being HAT PINS...is that not awesome or what, and they are really really pretty too!!
"for you...clearly"

materials used:
Summer Blossoms stamp set from Flourishes
Clear card stock from Flourishes
Copic markers, Crocheted white ribbon, black satin ribbon
scalloped border punch
foam tape

Go and visit the rest of the amazing design team to see what they cooked up using Clear card stock!


PS
I closed on our new home yesterday, it was a very long closing since I had to sign for my husband too,  it was kind of sad when they handed me the keys and he wasn't there to be excited with me.  So is the life of a military wife right...I did get to talk to him last night for about 3 minutes so that was nice.
