Flourishes Sneak Peek's Day One


Welcome to the first day of Flourishes New Release.  Today we are showing you some creations from the soon to be released set called Sweets of the Season.
Sweet Treats1


It is hard to believe that another month has passed and we are on to the next new release at Flourishes already.  I made two cards for today's peek.  

The above card uses the soon to be released set Sweets of the Season.  I used the new Spellbinder's die Beaded Circles. The paper is the Basic Grey Basic Kraft...  This ribbon 
May Arts Iridescent ribbon is so pretty. I used the Copics Collections Flesh Tones for my coloring of the gingerbread.
Sweet Treats Santa

  For my second card I used one of the sentiments in this new  set.  I had created one of these cards last year and wanted to recreate it with all my new Spellbinder dies. 
I used the new Spellbinder's Dies:  Labels 17 (his hat),
the smaller Beaded Circle Die for his mustache, mouth and eyebrows, 
 smallest circle die for his eyes and eye lids. Then I used the newest 
Spellbinders Snowflake Pendant set for his beard. 
I used Flourishes May Arts Iridescent ribbon and the Basic Grey Jovial paper. I used the
Inkssentials White Ink Pen for the highlight on his eyes.

Sweet Treats Santa2
I used the gingerbread stamps from this set to go along with my gingerbread cookies my son and I made for Santa..:)


Check out what the rest of the team has for you today:
I am also adding this to the Hope You Can Cling To Challenge over on SCS..
