Flourishes & Spellbinders Blog Hop

Today is a new release for Flourishes and the ladies at Spellbinders are hopping along!!  These sets are gonna blow your socks off – they’re darling and remind us of all things cozy at Grandma’s House.  We don’t need to tell you that tags and labels are two of the trendiest items to hit the card making market in a long time! And, to help you add style and pizzazz to your creations, Flourishes has teamed up with Spellbinders Paper Arts to make sure you have the perfect set of stamps to match a darling set of tag style dies. Wonderfully whimsical and reminiscent of Grandma’s calico prints, Flourishes “charming” set offers three labels that coordinate perfectly with Spellbinders Grommet Tags (S4-322).  Designed by Becky Fleck, you’ll also find 6 beautiful sentiments and 4 accent stamps to dress up your labels (Country Charm Labels)!  Pair that with Flourishes Country Charm Borders and you have the perfect set to make darling note cards in minutes.  Flourishes coordinating Country Charm Borders set features five border strips that match the labels set to a tee.  What fun!


When I saw this set, I immediately thought of country pin cushions and all the neat sewing tools that Grandma used to have.  Whether she was quilting, cross stitching or mending my clothes, a basket or jar of tools was always handy.  I decided to whip up some quick gift sets using the tags and borders on both my Mason Jar Pin Cushions and my note  cards.  These are meant to be gifts for some of my sweet crafter friends and boy did they ever whip up quickly!  Here are the three separate pairings:

Set of Leaf Pins and card.


Set of Assorted Ribbon and Card


Set of Assorted Buttons and Card

It was easy to coordinate fabric with the ink colors and the print on the tags – so country.  Perfect for a gift set.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: FlourishesCountry Charm Labels, Country Charm Borders
Paper: The Paper Company – Kraft, Bazzill, Coredinations
Ink: Distress Inks – Fire Brick Red, Sapphire, Pine Needles, Versafine Onyx Black
AccessoriesSpellbinders Lacey Ovals, Spellbinders Grommet Tags, fabric, Mason Jars, stuffing, hot glue gun, buttons, pins, ribbon

Because Flourishes knew this set was a match made in heaven with Spellbinder’s Grommet Tags, both design teams are joining forces for a fun-filled show and tell blog hop! Make sure to hop on over and see….

  • ColoradoMay 13, 2011 - 11:28 am

    Wow, went over to Flourishes using the link you included and couldn’t even find anything about the blog hop there. The blog I found through a link on that site did say something about problems with one of their blog hops… but didn’t seem to have a hop going on today. so, I’m confused. I usually go to the blog of the company having the hop to begin so I’m sure to start at the beginning and go from there… this one has me confused.

    But, none the less… your creations are lovely as always!!!!!ReplyCancel
