Welcome Back!
I hope you're doing well, and I'm so glad to see you here today!
It's been a fast and crazy summer already, and I just cannot believe that today is the 1st of August!
Where is the time going?
It seems that the kids were just released from school for the summer, and now we're seeing school supplies on the shelves at Walmart and it's almost time to get the dreaded school clothes shopping done! LOL
Well, as you know it's another Heartfelt Creations Wednesday!
This week I have a quick card to share with you featuring the gorgeous coneflowers from the Backyard Blossoms Collection as well as the papers from the Heartfelt Inspirations Journal Pages!
And how can I forget the stunning Intricate Swirl Frames Die!
I've used the two pages from the Heartfelt Inpsirations Journal Pages to create this card...see...and you thought journal pages were just for journaling, didn't you!
I've actually used the backside of the one page to do the matting behind the decorative frame, and have then trimmed out the portion of the floral design I wanted to showcase and adhered it to the backside of the decorative frame, which I have cut from white card stock! Once I had this all assembled, I popped the frame image up off the card base using pop dots!
I've then stamped and die cut the coneflower images and floral accents from the Backyard Blossoms Collection in a black ink onto white card stock. I've colored them using the easy to use Stack and Store Daubers from Heartfelt Creations! I'll list the colors of all the inks for you in the supply list at the end of this blog post!
I've then die cut my flowers using the coordinating dies and assembled them into a pretty wildflower like looking arrangement!
Here's a closer peek at those beautiful blossoms...
I've then created a little flag banner from a left over piece of teal colored paper and stamped my sentiment which is found in the Today's Quotes Cling Stamp Set!
Well, that's all for me today! Do pop on over to the Heartfelt Creations blog to take in all of the amazing projects the team have come up with for your inspiration!
Until next time...
