Hello Everyone and welcome to Day 2 of the JustRite Papercraft September Release!  Today we are showcasing two sets designed by our very own Becca Feeken, Filigree Leaves and What I Like About You!

I've created the base using Spellbinders' Romantic Rectangles and purple bazzill and then layered with white.  Next I've taken another piece of white, stamped Filigree Leaves in Versamark ink and clear embossed and then created the background using Pistachio, Lavender and Grape Gelatos from the Gelatos Colors Gift Set.  I've added a rhinestone flourish and around all of this I've attached a piece of purple silk ribbon.  The sentiment is from What I Like About You and has been stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and cut out with Fancy Labels Two Shapeabilities.  While it was still in the die, I've lightly airbrushed with V01 Copic Marker and then popped it up on foam tape.  To finish I've added a purple and vellum butterfly cut with Spellbinders Wonderful Wings Shapeabilities.

Paper - White, Purple Bazzill
Ink - Versamark, Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories - Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles, Fancy Tags Two, Wonderful Wings Dies, Rhinestone Flourish, Gelatos, Clear Embossing Powder, X-press It High Tac Foam Tape.

Hello Everyone!!  It's the first Monday of the month and that means it's time for another Flourishes Beautiful World Tour!!!  Come journey with us, visiting our wonderful design team from all over the globe!!  If you've landed here from England (Sasha's Blog) then you've come to the right place!!  If you've popped by from elsewhere, you might want to start back at Flourishes HQ so you don't miss any of the fabulous inspiration along the way.

Today our hostess is Aleksandra and she has challenged us to create a POSTCARD!  Oh My Goodness, didn't this one challenge me!!!  I have to say I really struggled, but decided to be inspired by the most Easterly Point of Australia's Mainland - Cape Byron, which is only a few hours drive from where I live.  At Cape Byron, there is a white lighthouse looking over the sea and I remember visiting there when I was about 12yrs old.  :)

I've used a base of white and layered with aqua cut with Spellbinders A2 Filigree Delight.  I've cut a piece of blending card with Large Oval Nestabilities and stamped the lighthouse from Flourishes' A Guiding Light stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black. I've coloured it with Copics (The Emerald Coast, Water, Pistachio, Cool Neutrals and Rich Browns Collections) and matted it with green card cut with Large Scallop Oval Nestabilities.  The sentiment is also from A Guiding Light, stamped in Tuxedo Black and cut with Small Oval Nestabilities.

Stamps - A Guiding Light (Flourishes)
Paper - Blending Card, White, Aqua, Green
Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories - Copics, Spellbinders A2 Filigree Delight, Small, Large and Large Scallop Nestabilities.

Hello Everyone!!!  Today is the first Sunday in September and that means it is Father's Day here in Australia!  To all the Dad's out there - wishing you a very happy day!!  This card is one I've made for my Dad, done mostly in blues since that's his favourite colour and the sentiment is a little tongue in cheek, but I know it will make him laugh.  You see I'm short......really short, and Dad is way taller than I am, but it wouldn't matter even if I towered over him, I would always look up to him.  Dad, you're the best, I love you and have an awesome day!!  BIG HUGS!!!

For my card I've used a base of Pacific Point and layered with white and Chocolate Chip which has been punched with a scallop border punch across the bottom.  Next I've taken two pieces of Echo Park Happy Days DP (which is kind of fun and retro - bit like us hey Dad! ;-)  LOL!) and added them to the top and bottom.  Then I've taken another piece of DP from the same paper pad, matted it with more Chocolate Chip and put it across the middle.  I've stamped the sentiment from Flourishes' Father's Day set on this panel.  The silhouette is also from Father's Day and has been stamped in Memento Danube Blue and cut out with Small Circle Nestabilities and matted with more Pacific Point cut with Large Circle Nestabilities.  To finish I've added a couple of Chocolate Pearls to the bottom corner.

Stamps - Father's Day (Flourishes)
Paper - Pacific Point, White, Chocolate Chip, Echo Park Happy Days DP

That's all from me today, thanks for visiting and hope you are inspired to stamp!  :)

Hello Everyone! Today I have a tutorial over on the Copic Oz Blog on how to construct a Faux Living Card!  Have you seen a Living Card before?  They are bought from Florists and have a plant or flowers inside.  They look a little something like this....
I don't know about you, but most plant life don't seem to last long in my house!  So, using this idea as inspiration, I've created a card, complete with a wide spine and an image full of interest and dimension.
You can find the details and list of Copic colours used on the Copic Oz Blog!

Thanks for visting and hope you are inspired to stamp!  :)

Hello Everyone!!  Today I have a Copic Tutorial over on the Flourishes Blog showing how to colour this China Vase and beautiful Zinnias!  I really love this image, it's just so bright and happy!  :)  You can find all the details about the colours I've used on the Flourishes Blog!

To create the card, I've used a base of pink and layered with white, Old Olive and Kaisercraft Tigerlilly DP.  Across this is a piece of Olive that has been punched with Woodland Branch and topped with more Tigerlilly DP.  Over this is a piece of white crochet lace topped with pink satin ribbon.  The image is from Flourishes' Zinnias stamp set and has been coloured with Copics (see the Flourishes Blog for details) and cut with Spellbinders Adorning Squares die set.  I've used the largest of the same die to cut a piece of Olive behind the image and then popped it up on foam tape.  I've stamped the sentiment from the same set and cut it out with Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Hourglass Die and attached it to the bottom of the image. To finish I've added a bow and pearls to the corners.

Stamps - Zinnias (Flourishes)
Paper - Pink, White, Old Olive, Blending Card, Kaisercraft Tigerlilly DP
Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black

This month Naomi has challenged us to make a card using a flower that represents your country.  Well this was a no-brainer for me....of course I was going to choose The Golden Wattle, the National Floral Emblem of Australia!!  This fragrant fluffy golden orb blooms in Winter during July and August, which means it's flowering right now.  :)
I've used a base of green card and layered with chocolate and a piece of Kaisercraft Great Southern Land DP.  Down one side I've added another piece of Great Southern Land DP (and yes, those are wattle flowers on there too!) and matted it with chocolate that has been punched with Woodland Branch border punch.  Over this I've attached a piece of green ribbon.  The Golden Wattle from Flourishes' Bloomin' Aussie Florals stamp set has been stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black onto blending card and coloured with Copics (The Daffodil Collection and The Leaf Green Collection).  It's been cut with Large Circle Nestabilities and matted with green card cut with Lacey Circle Nestabilities and then popped up on foam tape.  The sentiment is also from Bloomin' Aussie Florals and has been cut with Flourishes' Perfectly Pierced Classic Hourglass Die and glued to the bottom of the image panel. To finish I've added a bow and a couple of pearls to the corners.

Hello Everyone!!  Today's card is another one using the latest release by JustRite - this time it's a pretty Lace Oval Frame Background!  I've also used that fabulous sentiment set showcased yesterday called Large Elegant Sentiments - such a wonderful set for all occasions!

I've used a base of vanilla and layered with pink and another piece of vanilla stamped with Lace Oval Frame Background in Memento Rich Cocoa.  The sentiment is from Large Elegant Sentiments, stamped in Rich Cocoa and cut with Oval Nestabilities.  This has been popped up over a diecut of pink cut with Fancy Tags Two.  Across each corner I've attached pieces of pink ribbon and then the top I've embellished with rolled roses created with Bitty Blossoms and Foliage Two Spellbinders dies.  On the bottom corner I've added a pink bow.
