I chose to use the Flourishes Thank You set, and I had some fun working with it and some new product. I started by spraying some Matte GooseBumps Texture Spray onto Flourishes Classic Ivory Cardstock. It gives it a look like a textured wall. I then used a sponge dauber and added some Brushed Corduroy (Ranger Distress Ink) to the whole panel. It really made the texture pop. Then, I took the script image and stamped over the texture with Metallic Gold Stazon Ink. The tulip was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Cryogen White card stock and was colored with Copics. The frame and sentiment panels were sprayed with GooseBumps Shimmer Texture Spray. Fun stuff I tell ya!

Our MYSTERY BAGS were WILDLY popular in the past and so, why not bring them back? Each bag is valued at roughly $40 but... you pay only $25!!! Each bag has two stamp sets -- YES TWO! One is an unpackaged set that we cannot sell because it doesn't have an index sheet. But, it stamps perfectly and would love a new home! Each bag also has a fun tutorial sheet showcasing a card or technique. Add in a few yards of ribbon and an embellishment and that is what is in each Mystery Bag. It's one heck of a bargain!
