Heartfelt Creations Wednesday Inspiration

Happy Wednesday!

This week I made a card using this beautiful arbor from the Twining Roses Set.  This stamp is SO pretty!  It would be great for weddings or invitations!  I love the iron gate with it too!

I've been doing lots of lavenders and greens and whites lately, hope you're not getting sick of it!  I just love the look of it all!

Make sure to visit HC Blog for all the beautiful creations the Design Team has come up with, you won't be dissapointed!

Blessings!
