I hope you've been enjoying the new Farmer's Market Collection by Heartfelt Creations.
As mentioned last week, this has to be one of my all time favorite collections!
When I first opened the sweet package of goodies, I had so many ideas running through my head, and couldn't wait to get creating!
One of the ideas I had was for a Birthday Gift Set of little note cards, presented in an adorable berry basket. I thought it would be super cute paired with a homemade jar of jam, or a nail polish that was named after raspberries.
Well, needless to say I got the Silhouette Cameo humming and chose some of those fabulous pre made card panels that Heartfelt does so well and whipped up this little set in no time.
Here's a peek...
Wouldn't you just love to receive a little package like that!?!?
I know I sure would have fun giving a little package like that!
As you can see, I've bundled the cards together with bakers twine as well as one of the adorable tags that comes from the Farmers Market collection itself.
And, here's a look at the three cards I've included in the gift set...
I love giving card sets as gifts...it's something that most people will use (hopefully) and are consumable rather than being more clutter that needs to be dusted, etc.
The little premade card panels in this collection make these sweet little cards so quick and easy to make!
And who can forget those beautiful ripe raspberries on the vine!
I thought they would look perfect flowing out of the basket...
I thought some pretty lace and some moss as a finishing touch made this project adorable!
Hopefully you agree!
I do hope you've been inspired and you give this a go yourself the next time you are needing a garden party idea, or are wanting to gift a special someone who loves to garden or has a raspberry addiction! It can be used for so many different occasions by just changing the sentiment you use on the container. And, if raspberries is not the fruit you're calling for...Heartfelt has you covered in the apple and peach department as well in this collection!
Be sure to check out the Heartfelt Creations blog if you have not done so already today!
This collection has brought out all the extra creative juices in the design team and they have all done an amazing job with the Farmers Market products!
(P.S. Don't wait too long to purchase yours as I do believe this is gonna be extremely popular!)
That's all for me today!
Thanks for stopping in for a visit!
I'd love to hear what you think of this little project, so don't be shy...feel free to leave me a comment below!
Until next time...
