Flourishes Flip ~ Happy Thoughts

Hello all! This is an exciting day for Flourishes -- it's the first day folks can shop and qualify for the next fun-filled, money saving club we call (Flourishes Loyalty Incentive Program!)   How do you become a member? Starting TODAY, the next time you go shopping in the Flourishes online boutique and spend $100 on a single purchase (not including taxes or shipping), you will receive this beautiful stamp set called Happy Thoughts! It was penned by artist Sam Pickard and the fabulous sentiments were the creative genius of Dina Kowal! Keep in mind, you can't purchase this set -- the only way you can get your hands on this lovely floral spray of Hydrangeas and these beautifully scripted sentiments is to become a FLIP member!   AND.... that beautiful stamp set is only just the beginning! When you become a FLIP member, it's your pass to BIG SAVINGS!

For my card, I stamped the flowers, with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, onto Cryogen White cs and colored them with Copics.  I started with BG 11 in the center, then worked my way from the outside of the petals using BG02 and BG01.  Lastly I added some V01 to the outside and V000 over that to give the soft violet tones.  The stems were colored with YG93.  For the flower centers, I used an Ice White Pearl Pen.
