Celebrating Flourishes 4th Birthday!!!! Blog Hop/Challenges

Flourishes is lighting the candles and getting ready to sing to honor their fourth birthday! And, as a way to celebrate, I’m happy to say I was hand-picked to help them have a bit of a party as a designer for their customer appreciation hop! The only challenge here was to create a card or project using my favorite Flourishes stamp set. Read on – I’ll tell you how you can win some Flourishes goodies too!

I love this Flourishes morning glory from the set called A Year in Flowers 2 .  When I was a young girl growing up at my parent's home, the morning glories grew wild and were so gorgeous. I think the wild kind are called bindweed (same family) but look the same to me. It is always good to find stamps that brings back memories of your childhood. You can think about those days as you create your card.
And, for a cute reason I love morning glories--sometimes when I get up in the morning and hubby is already up, I enter the room and he will say, "Morning, Glory". No, Glory is not my name, but I think it is very sweet and always reminds me of the morning glory flower. :-)

My Flourishes sentiment is from the Friendly Reminders set. It was just perfect for the Sizzix die cut I used. I'm always finding great sentiments with my Flourishes sets.

The rest of my recipe is below.
