Morning!
It's quite an odd DT day for me as it is our last challenge this week before our Summer break. My weeks wont feel the same for a couple of months so I thought Id show my card and rally some support from everyone to see if we can get a really big entry this week! The prizes are super and include some of Teri's images plus a super selection of beautiful flourishes from our sponsor so please see if you can come and join me this week.
I'll be honest, I do sometimes use a flourish to finish off a card but this week as I was trying to make the flourish a bit more of a prominent player, I fiddled for a long while before I finished upon this design. No doubt next time I wont stress over the flourish so much and will make a card that knocks the spots off this one?! Cardmaking gets like this at times for me!
I feel much happier with this card now that I have cut up the flourish! I made the background and used a couple of paired seahorses from Teri and was quite disappointed when I googled them to see what colour they were. I thought they'd be a beautiful turquoise and instead they were this sort of ochre colour!

Steves put his back out yet again yesterday so Ive not idea how this weekend will pan out but if it sorts quickly then I hope to be back with some more shares. Have a lovely weekend and thanks for calling in!

Stunning creations - love the sea horse one. x
I love the first card and think that the flourish really makes the flower stand out and that its part of it. I don't know what you two are getting up to for Steve to have put his back out again LOL - but I really do hope it mends itself very soon! Have a fab weekend hun. Hugs, Claire x
Nice cards. Both of them show really good use of the flourishes! I like the way you cut them up to use on the sea horse card! Vickie
