Heartfelt Creations July Release

Happy Wednesday!

This month we are delighted to release our very first line of Heartfelt Creations paper. Check out the beautiful patterns, luscious colors, and organic textures. Some come with our stamp images in them; others are abstract. This will add some fun and variety to your creations!

The Classic Edition Collection stamp sets and die release is gearing towards the fall season and colder days. A rustic truck, wooden wagon, playful dog, berries, apples, and pumpkins will keep you busy creating as the sun begins disappearing earlier in the evenings. Our card samples will give you many ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Leave a comment on the HC blog by July 24th and you will be eligible to win the entire release.

HC's stamps and matching dies are so awesome, but now having papers to match too!!!  Wow!!  These papers are 12" x 12" so they can be used for scrapbooking or cardmaking.  They are also double-sided and are absolutely GORGEOUS!  What a blessing to be a designer for them, as I get to play with it all!

For my first creation using the Classic Edition Collection, I made a card using the wagon filled with "bounty".  So much fun to color with these images and be able to layer and piece them.

Here's a side view that shows the piecing...you can also right click on the picture to see it better...

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see the entire Collection and leave a comment for a chance to win it!  Also, check out all the beautiful creations the designers have made!

Blessings!
