Today’s card is stamped with another new release from Flourishes called “Forest of Trees”.

To make this card I tore a strip of Eclipse masking tape and covered the lower half of the whisper white card stock.  Then I sponged the top half of the card with Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, Almost Amethyst and Sage Shadow.  Once sponged I removed the masking tape and stamped a sentiment from Flourishes “Peace” set and one of the new tree images from “Forest of Trees” several times with Versafine “Onyx Black” ink.  This image was then adhered to the black card base.  I then embossed the Crystal Clear Card Stock (acetate) using a Cuttlebug and the Swiss Dot embossing folder.  I used Vellum Glue Dots to adhere the acetate to the front of the card.  (The vellum glue “dots” are actually not dots at all but are an adhesive in a sheet form that you simply transfer from the sheet to the object you want to adhere.)  Lastly a bow using May Arts ribbon was added.

Here are the three sets released this week at Flourishes.

Oh and just a reminder about Flourishes  “New Release Bundle”  deal.   You can purchase all the new sets for 10% off!  This offer is good through September 17th.  The three new sets this month are “Birds and Vine”, “Forest of Trees” and “Mixed Greetings”.   Also if you want to see more cards made with this week’s new releases, be sure to visit the other Flourishes design team member’s blogs.
