Feminine Charm





It is time for another new release at Flourishes.  Today we are showcasing a set called Feminine Charm. I fell in love with this set from the first moment I saw it.  I love to sew and was once upon a time a Fashion Design major in college.  Unfortunately I could do the sewing but not the drawing it required. This dress form is so pretty and reminds me of those days long gone.

Feminine Charm.

For this card I stamped my image on my Lost and Found Rosy designer paper.  All of the designer paper on this card is from that collection.  I added some pretty lace trim from Flourishes new ribbon collections.  I added some dimension to my card by using a button from the Lost and Found One of a Kind  Rosy button collection.  Pretty simple card.

Now do you want a chance to win this set.  There are so many possibilities:

    1. Your papers and design are absolutely ideal for this image, Dawn! I sure hope I got this Rosy paper when I went shopping at Flourishes recently. I'll have to check. You would have been a great fashion designer. Too bad about that drawing obstacle. I just love your card! I'm feeling so inspired, making the rounds today!

    34. Oh, Wow....I can't even think of the words to describe this in the honor it should be described. The colors are excellent together and the sentiment is perfect for the stamp. I need to recreate this for my mom for her birthday in March...she always loved to sew but her eyesight is keeping her from it now.
      An excellent design, Dawn...just perfect.

    37. I was struck by your comment "Pretty simple card." This may have been a simple card for you to make but there's nothing simple about how it looks. It's GORGEOUS. Everything you chose looks so perfectly together. Love it.
