Welcome to another month of Flourishes Bring Back Beautiful Challenge! (BBB24)! This month's Challenge is The Beauty of Winged Things! Birds, butterflies, even lady bugs -- let your creativity flow on this challenge aimed at honoring those creatures with wings on your card or creation! A big welcome to Geri who won last month's Flourishes challenge and joins us this month on the BBB Challenge team! For my card today I chose to go all rose with a touch of bluebird! I am using Flourishes Spring is Sprung stamp set. I used Flourishes Classic Ivory card stock. I used Ranger Brushed Corduroy ink to slightly ink distress the edges of all my card stock and designer papers. I layered the focal image with Spellbinder's dies. I used the Spellbinder's Nested Pennants for the sentiment. I decided to do Outline Color Stamping for the focal image. To make inking a stamp with multiple colors easy, I used Ranger Ink Blending tool, replacement foam. For the colors I used Ranger Peeled Paint, Memento Rose Bud, Memento Summer Sky, and Memento Bahama inks. I cut up one of the replacement foams into several pieces. I placed it in the corner and dabbed at the ink. I then inked the stamp according to the color I wanted for that area. I love the finished results. Definitely want to try this look more. I finished the card with some sewing machine stitches, paper distressing, and seam binding bow topped with gold trimmed with white centered button from my stash. I did add two corsage pins to complete the look. As always thanks so much for stopping by! Make sure to check out all the other beautiful creations from the Bring Back Beautiful Designers!
