FTTC244 - Plaid Joy

Hi all!  It's Tuesday and time for another Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge.  This week it's all about the ever classic plaid or houndstooth patterns:


For my card, I've used the newly released Handmade Snowflakes by Flourishes.  Such a classic set, love it!  The snowflake is stamped in sno cone, then I stamped one of the sentiments from the set in black licorice over it.  I created my plaid using the plaid builder stamp set and the same sno cone and black licorice inks.  I like that the pattern is slightly off - that's my story and I'm sticking to it!  ha!  I used the stamping off technique for parts of the pattern to create a more dimensional look.  The little plaid fishtail flag is from the washi patterns set by MFT.  A few enamel dots add the finishing touch.  I've also made this for the SACC challenge this week.  Play along with us at Flourishes and SACC for a chance to win ;)


Close up...  now go check out what the rest of the ultra talented Friends of Flourishes DT has created for you!


Thank you for stopping by!  See you soon!

    Oh, how pretty! I love the plaid bg you made. It looks warm and fuzzy like a soft flannel blanket! It has been wonderful having you with us this month for the Timeless Tuesday Challenges! You are a remarkably talented designer, and seeing your cards each week has been a real pleasure! :)
