Flourishes Preview Day 1: Berry Sweet

Oh my...It's release time at Flourishes, and I sure hope you can show a little restraint as we peek the next three sets on the line!  I say it every month, but really, these sets are just amazing!  Today, we are previewing Berry Sweet, which incidentally features my favorite berries...raspberries!  My MIL makes the most amazing raspberry jam, and a jar never lasts the month.   And if you're not a fan of raspberries, however unlikely that may be, perhaps you'll find Marcella's take on blueberries to be more your style!  Either way, it's a sure winner, and you colouring fanatics are going to love this!

Stamps:  Berry Sweet (Flourishes)
Paper:  Flourishes Classic White, Riding Hood Red (SU), DP by Websters Pages
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories:  Labels 10 die (Spellbinders), Dusty Rose & Evergreen Copic Collections, gold studs (Hero Arts), Lace Doiley punch (MS), Scallop border punch (SU), mini binder clip (SU), pop dots

 
 The raspberries were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black on Flourishes Classic White.  They were coloured with the Dusty Rose and Evergreen Copic Marker Collections, then cut and embossed with Spellbinders Labels 10 die.  The designer paper is by Webster's Pages layered on Riding Hood Red and then on Flourishes Classic White.  There is a scalloped border and a Martha Stewart doily border punch for interested wrapped with some of Flourishes newest trim...Love that stuff!  I finished with a few brass studs and punched the sentiment out with the word window punch before adding a tiny binder clip to finish.  Aren't they just delicious?

You've got to be ready for more berry goodness, because the design team has some totally sweet creations to share!
