LRS #148 Add Flowers

The challenge this week at Loves Rubberstamps is to ADD FLOWERS to your card/project. You can have flowers in your image, use a flower die, or just add flowers...you get the idea. We hope you'll decide to go a little bit floral and join us this week. We are being sponsored by Art by Miran who provided the DT with some wonderful images, I used the gorgeous Fairy Shaylee

You can find many of the items I used at the Loves Rubberstamps online store:

Art by Miran Fairy Shaylee

Copic X-Press It Blending Card

Copic Sketch Markers

Authentique Lovely

Bazzill

Wild Orchid Crafts

MFT Flat Bottom Clouds Die

Distress Ink : Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar

Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue

Candy Fix Foam Pads

Yes, you read right...I used the MFT Flat Bottom Clouds Die. After months (maybe years) of ogling Leanne's clouds, I thought it was about time I attempted them. HERE is the tutorial that was given to me, and rather than hand draw the clouds, I traced around the die to create the shape for the template.

Make sure you upload your creation by 9PM CST next Monday evening, which you can do HERE. If you upload to online galleries, please use the tag or keyword LRSBC148. The challenge is open to everyone, you can use any stamps and products that you would like, and remember....you can enter as many times as you like...just remember to ADD FLOWERS!.
