Flourishes Friday Free For All

Mornin' everyone! Today is Flourishes Friday Free For All! I have another card from the last release set From the Desk Of. Apparently, I just can't help but make a vintage card with this set ;-)


For this card, I stamped the letter packet image with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and stamped it off once before stamping on Classic White card stock. Then I colored it with very light colors so I could stamp the sentiment over it. Then I cut it out with a Classic Oval Nestabilities die and matted it with more die cut layers. The post card is from my patterned paper and was just perfect for this card. Some lace, some twine, and a die cut butterfly finish it off.

Now, be sure to hop around and see what the rest of the Flourishes team has for you using this set! 
And, don't forget that this is the last day to take advantage of the New Release Bundle. You can find out all about that right HERE.

Also, don't forget about the Gambler's Sale that's ongoing. Selected items are now 20% off--don't take a chance on missing out of some fabulous products! Check it out HERE.

Here are the Copic markers I used on this card:
