Hello, friends...
I am so excited to share with you, that I was invited to be the guest designer for the
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge for the month of July!
What an honor to get to work with these very talented ladies - this has been a delightful secret to keep!
Today's Timeless Tuesday Challenge hostess is the amazing Makiko, who has chosen "All About Summer" as her theme for this week. Makiko has challenged us to make a card or project with a summer theme.
"On the Porch" was immediately my choice for this challenge.
It's one of my favorite Flourishes sets, and certainly make me think of summer.
A CAS easel card seemed the perfect fit for this wonderful image!
The image and sentiment were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Dye Ink, on Flourishes Classic White Cardstock. The image was colored with Copic Markers: Y08, Y11, YG61, YG63, G21, C00, C1.
Prima's beautiful "Songbird Collection" 6 x 6 Paper Pack, and black cardstock scraps were used to mat panels. A bit of Gelly Roll Stardust Pen was used to give the ice cubes some sparkle, some gloss was used to give the image a shiny, realistic look, and some Want 2 Scrap Bling was added as a perfect finishing touch. The image was stamped a second time, and the lemons were colored and fussy cut, to use as a brace for the front panel. The lemons and the focal panel were given some dimension with foam squares.
Take a look at what the fabulous Timeless Tuesday Designers have created for you today!

So pretty Patti! I would love to sip some of that lemonade right now ~ it's pretty toasty here in the desert!

That is just lovely Patti! Such a pretty stamp set, too!
Awesome - looks like it is ready to take out to the front porch and start sipping. Really like the stamp set too. Great job.
Congrats on the GDT spot! Such a lovely soothing card for such a 'hot' topic...meaning the heat wave we are dealing with. Jim and I have been on a lemonaide kick the last couple weeks. Cold and icy, taste so good. Love the colors with the black matting. I say this easel card is perfect!

Patti, this is so darn nice. Love how you used the grey paper, makes the sunny yellow lemons really pop. What's better than lemonade on a hot summer day. Enjoy your time with this DT. Have a great 4th.
