Winter Berries

Hello all and welcome to day one of Flourishes sneak peeks for October! The clock is ticking to get those cards and creations done before the holidays hit. We're happy to report Flourishes has a handful of new sets guaranteed to help you shine this Christmas! Our first set is one that delivers an elegant flair!

Flourishes has taken the beautiful Cotoneaster plant and gave it a holiday flair with this new 4" by 6" set illustrated by Sam Pickard. The long and lean berry spray will add a dash of elegance and pop to all of your holiday cards and creations. We've paired this lovely image with six scripted sentiments crafted by the talented Dina Kowal.

A rather clean and simple card today using Winter Berries. I had these scraps of designer paper from Bo Bunny that just kept looking at me so I put them to use. Stamped my sentiment and leaves onto Classic White Card Stock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Colored with Copic Collections:

I then die cut the panel using Tailor Made Classic Keyhole Die and sponged around the panel before I removed the die. Added some flourished pearls and a wooden button jute twine bow to finish it off. Voila!

The Design Team created some wonderful creations showing off these beautiful winter berries. While you're hopping and looking at their cards, don't forget to try to figure out....

Hidden among the Design Team’s blogs today is our Mystery Blogger of the day. Comment on her blog and you could be chosen to win today’s set! The more you comment, the better your chances of winning.
