Welcome to day two of Flourishes New Release Week. Up today is this beautiful Medallion set. Oh the possibilities with this set. As you will see today this set is a must have. The sentiments are perfect for many different occasions.
I started off just making a card for project today. I stamped my Medallion Motif with Versafine ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I used Spellbinders Grand Labels Twenty Three and my Grand Calibur to cut out my card shape. The paper I chose is from the Kaiser Craft Hunt and Gather collection. I added a button and some May Arts Celery Crocheted Trim from the Flourishes ribbon collection.
Then I had some more fun with this set. I had seen a pillow in the Pottery Barn store that was very similar to this only it was navy blue with white motifs. They had a price tag of $39.
I stamped my Medallion Motif with Versafine ink onto some twill fabric I had. I let it dry for a day. Then I added the buttons and made it into a pillow. I made two of these for my daughter as a housewarming gift. It was so easy and the materials were less than $5.
