Heartfelt Creations - Inspiration Timeless Amour Collection

Happy Wednesday!

It's time for some Heartfelt Creations' inspiration using.  This week, both my projects are made with the new Timeless Amour Collection.  The first is a card:





 I love this color combination and I just love to color!  So many pretty little roses and vines on this image and I love the look with the leaves and flowers around it.

The second project I have is an altered mini composition notebook packaged up as a gift.  Here is the book by itself:



The book with the packaging pieces:



Here is the book all packaged up and ready to give as a gift:



Here is a close up of the tag I made with the little heart die...I think this is so cute!



I hope this give you a little inspiration on using these beautiful HC Products!  Also, a cute little gift idea for someone special!  Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see all the beautiful creations from the designers this week!

I'm submitting the card to the latest Word Art Wednesday Challenge # 56.
I'm submitting the notepad to the Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge #60 - Anything but a card & ribbon.

Blessings!
