Instructions:
Pull one of the flip fold cards from the envelope and die cut some of the edge dies then apply the edge die cuts to the edges of the card and cover the panels with the paper collection.  I stamped the sentiment and used an oval die to cut out.  Color with a Dove Blender Pen and put the die cut back in the die and apply a light layer of color using a cotton ball. Use a light touch as you can always apply more but you can not take it back.  Next I picked an oval from the card fronts and used the oval die to cut it out and I applied it to a layer of cardstock.  I edged the piece with Dusty Concord ink and set aside.  Next I die cut the Raindrops on Roses die and glued it to the back of the oval piece then I applied the Vintage Glass Glitter and set it aside to dry.  Now stamp, cut out, color and shape the flower and leaves.  After applying color I added a layer of the glaze to seal in the color.  This allows you to wet the paper and the color does not run. After shaping the flowers I added the Prills and the pollen to the centers.   Decide where you want your flowers and leaves to lie and glue them down.

Next I cut a sentiment from the paper collection and backed it with the green cardstock and then I used the dimensional tape to glue it to the card front.

Watch this video https://youtu.be/Z8P070kC3oo to learn how to create dimensional roses with the Classic Rose Collection

My project is 6 X 6.  Find the shadow box in the envelope and cover the sections with the paper collection.  Next I chose a 6 X 6 card front from the paper and glued it down on the inside panel of the box.  Next I cut a piece of the paper collection and covered the back of the box to hide the closures.  I cut the Raindrops on Roses die out of white cardstock and glued it to one of the inside flaps of the box.  Next I stamped, cut out and colored the butterflies.  Next I glued the gold seed beads to the bodies of the butterflies and then I covered the butterfly with the Glossy Accents to give them a shiney appearance and then lay them aside to dry.  Now comes the fun part.  I stamped, cut out, colored and shaped the flowers and leaves.  Once you have made the flowers, add the prills to the insides and set them aside to dry.  I added Krystallos Shard Glitter to the edges of the roses and I think it almost looks like dew on the petals.  Next I arranged the flowers and leaves and glued them down.  Some of the flowers were hot glued to the box front and some I just used Designer Dries Clear glue.  Once I was happy with the placement of the leaves and flowers, I tucked in the little butterflies and glued them down.  The box is complete.

Another Monday and a Christmas Card....

Good morning friends and welcome.  Come on in and sit a spell and let's have some coffee or your morning beverage!  I'm here this morning to share a Christmas card I have made using Heartfelt Creations products!


I have used the "Celebrate the Season" papers and my Sparkling Poinsettia stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations as well.  I just cut a sentiment from the paper, added a little glitter and then I used dimensional tape to pop it up a little.

I hope you enjoy!  I'm just now getting started on making my cards so I have a ways to go.  That's it for me this morning.  Hope your Monday is a good one!

Another Heartfelt Creations Wednesday....


Good morning friends and welcome to another Wednesday filled with Heartfelt Creations! We are going forward with the Pampered Pooch             Collection and I'm sharing two more projects this morning. This first little             doggie reminds me of Bella up to and including her pony tail!

Instructions:
My card size is 5 3/4 X 5 3/4.  Make card base out of watercolor paper for strength and stability and set aside.  I chose two pieces of the paper collection and on my top layer I used the largest circle die and on the blue piece of paper I cut the next smallest size.  Now glue the two pieces of paper together making a matted circle.  Next I stamped the image on a piece of the watercolor paper and colored the image using various distress inks and a brush.  I then glued this piece under the two pieces of the paper making my image a matted piece.  Next I stamped, cut out, colored and shaped the flowers and leaves and those sweet little lady bugs. Cover the lady bugs in Glossy Accents and set aside to dry.  After having formed the flowers and glued the layers together I added the prills to the centers and left to dry.  When they were dry I glued the leaves and flowers onto the front of my card.  Next glue the two lady bugs where you like them.  I cut out a sentiment from the paper collection and matted it with a piece of green cardstock.  I stamped, cut out and covered the little bone with prills that had been colored with Lady Bug Ink to match my piece.  I am finicky about things matching so sometimes I color the prills with Memento Inks.  Once the little bone is dry, glue it to the top of the sentiment piece and use dimensional tape to adhere to the card front.  Glue down the half pearls and your card is all finished.  

Next up is my little puppy box:



This next photo shows the top of the box and the sweet flowers I made.

Directions:  Box is 2 X 4.  There are many directions for boxes on line and I just found one and made my box.  Next I cut pieces of the paper collection and covered the 4 sides of the box and the top as well.  Next I cut some panels to glue over the top of that with pictures of the little dogs on them.  Next I cut the decorative piece from the paper collection and glued it along the bottom of the box and also one to glue to the top of the box so it just peeps out from under the lid.  Now stamp, emboss, cut out and shape the flowers.  Add the green Prills and set aside to dry.  Stamp, cut out, color and shape the leaves and set aside.  Next I stamped the little paw prints along one side of the box and added glue and prills to give the little paws dimension.  The next step is to glue the flowers and leaves onto the top of the box. Once you have done this your box is finished.  It can be used to hold a small gift or even some dog treats if you like.

I hope you have enjoyed these two projects and if need further inspiration visit the Heartfelt Creations blog and see what the other designers have made.

Birthday Wishes....

Good morning friends.  I'm here this morning to share a birthday card I made as I'm always looking for designs for this type of card because the birthdays always in my family always slip up on me.   


Everything on this card is Heartfelt Creations except I used a butterfly border from Crafters Companion.  I just love how those little butterflies stand up and welcome you to the birthday greeting!

I know this is short and sweet this morning but I'm off to work on some other projects that I'm not able to show yet.  I will spend the day inside as we are under another air quality alert here in the Tennessee Valley.  There are lots of fires around and the smoke everywhere.  We are so very dry that fires were inevitable I guess.

My card is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2.  Make card base out of white cardstock.  Then make a mat piece using purple cardstock and glue it down to the card front.  Next I selected a card front from the paper collection and glued it to the purple mat.  I found a sweet sentiment on the paper and cut it to fit the banner then glued it down.  Stamp and cut out the swirl and color using the distress inks and a brush.  Stamp, cut out and color the flower petals.  Color the edges with dusty concord distress ink and then add a layer of the glaze.  This sets the color so it does not run when you wet it to shape.  Shape the flowers and rosebuds, add the prills to the centers of the single layer flowers.  Next you decide where you want your elements to sit and glue them down.  Using these beautiful card fronts is a great way to achieve beautiful cards with minimal effort!

Head on over to the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see several projects made by the design team.  I just know you will be inspired!  You may also visit each designer by clicking on their names on the sidebar!

Good morning everyone and welcome to What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday. Julia is the proud owner of this weekly get together and we are so thankful for her trying to keep us all in a row.  I personally have run a wheel off a couple of times but she very graciously gets us all lined up back in a row.  Thank you Julia!

My desk this morning looks almost staged as I have a lot of little goodies to put away.  I'm sort of in the middle of a project or two but I can't show them just yet so bear with me as I keep them hidden from your eyes.


I'm working on a project for my design team and needed some quick flowers and these Berry Blossoms from Heartfelt Creations are perfect.  I also have some pinecones spray painted white and then sprayed with Lindy's Stamp Gang Cotton Candy Pink.  Next will come little pearls on the tips and a pink bow on top. They make wonderful tree ornaments!  I don't have a finished one ready to show you yet.

That does it for me this morning.  I'm off to browse some of your blogs before I have to officially start my day!
