Heartfelt Creations - Wednesday Inspiration & Good News!

Happy Wednesday!

First, I have exciting news!  I made the HC Design Team for another 6 month term!!!  I'm so excited to continue on the DT, I LOVE working with their gorgeous products!  Thank you to all those who voted for me, you have given me a huge blessing!  Please visit the HC Blog to see all of us that are continuing on the team and the new incredibly talented ladies joining us! 

And now, I have a new card for you today to give you a little inspiration! 





I really love how this card came out!  I used the Delicate Asters Collection of stamps and lots of white texture.  This is one of my favorite shades of blue and I love how it looks with the white!

You can click on the picture to get a closer view.  Also, all the details are at the bottom of this post if you would like them.

Please visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the beautiful creations from the design team this week!

I'm entering this in the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #52 to use Scripture or uplifting sentiments.

Also, the Ways To Use It Challenge on Split Coast Stampers WT398 for embossing.

Thank you for visiting!  Blessings!

Kathy

  9. kathy: This is absolutely breaktakingly gorgeous! I'm so in love with the window affect, the embossed background, and the lovely colors. WOWZERS, this is something else. The dimension pops right off the page. Just divine! I am SO lucky to have your talents shared in our challenges. I sure hope everyone stops by to take a peek at this.

    Also, what happened with the voting? Did you get your DT spot back for another year? I was praying for God's will to be done, and that whatever He decided, that you would have a peace about it. Please let me know the outcome. Thinking of you!
    Hugs,
