More Packaging Ideas with the Farmers Market Collection...

Hello and Welcome!

I'm sure by now you've seen the wonderful packaging that I've been able to create with the Heartfelt Creations "Farmers Market" Collection.  (..and if you haven't you can see them here as well as here.)

Well, I'm back this week with two more unique and inspiring ideas for you!
Nothing says Farmers Market more than bushel barrels and clear jugs and jars!  
That's where my creativity took me for this weeks posting...

Let's take a look...


Both of these packaging ideas were very quick and simple to complete!
For the barrel basket, I've done quite a bit of fussy cutting from the paper pack.  
The jar image on the oil jar has been stamped from one of the many beautiful stamps within this remarkable collection.  

Here's a close up of each of these items...


...and of the bushel barrel...


In many parts of the world, summer is winding down as well as the local Farmers Markets.  Wouldn't this just be an adorable idea to give to your favorite vendor who always has that special product waiting for you week after week!  Slip some seeds into the basket for the next upcoming growing season, and how about some pretty wildflowers neatly arranged in the oil jar for a beautiful display!  The ideas are limitless!

Well, that's all for me today!
Do be sure to stop by the Heartfelt Creations blog to see the fantastic creations the rest of the design team have come up with for your enjoyment this week!  And...I'm pretty sure there may be a sneak peek of the new September collection waiting for you there as well...maybe...

Until next time...
