To kick off the Flourishes August release of 4 new sets of stamps, they are having a challenge called "Shades of Sunset:
Beautiful colors, who wouldn't be inspired? I don't have very many Flourishes stamps; most of mine are flowers and so I thought I'd use this beautiful damask stripe from the Strips and Stripes set and some distress inks to make my own kind of sunset:
supplies: white cardstock, Flourishes Strips and Stripes, dusty concord, worn lipstick, spiced marmalade and mustard seed distress inks, sentiment from the Lenten Rose set, Hero Arts S5316 Silhouette Grasses, versafine onyx black ink, clear embossing powder
I have always loved this "Be still and know that I am God" quote; it has given me great comfort, and I thought it was appropriate for this card.

Sounds like a super challenge and I adore how you brought in the colors of the sunset! That sentiment is so powerful!
Lin, this is just gorgeous! Oh, my! I really thought that was designer paper and was wondering what collection it was in all those different colors. Sheesh! You'd think I'd recognize one of Flourishes stamps. This is sooooo beautiful. Love the silhouette. What a wonderful entry for the challenge!
stunning Lin. Love the design and the colours.
So fresh and beautiful! I like how you took the stripes and strips to make the panels. Wonderful job. Thanks for playing in Flourishes Sunset Challenge.
Ok, this is way creative and fun. I absolutely love your concept here Lin!!! I might just copy it! HA!! Thanks for the fabulous inspiration!
What an eye you have! The use of black on the bright colors contrasts so perfectly! Gorgeous card, Lin!!
Wow, wow wow, this is breathtaking!
Very striking Lin!
Lovely gradient design and wonderful choice of verse.
