Heartfelt Creations - Butterfly Box & Cards Set

Happy Wednesday everyone!

***It's time to vote for the new Heartfelt Creations' Design Team!  If you like my creations for them, would you please visit their blog and vote for me?  I love working with their products and would LOVE to continue with them as a designer!  Thank you so much!

***************************

Now, for some inspiration from Heartfelt Creations!  This week I have a set of coordinating cards with a matching gift box.



(You can click on the photos for a closer look.)


Here's a close up of the top of the box.


Here is a picture of all the cards together with 2 of the 6 matching envelopes, 1 in burgandy colors and the rest in blues.



These are all made using the designer papers from the collection.  One has the sentiment stamped on it with a journal block, the rest are all made with sentiment blocks from the papers.  Really easy to put together a pretty set of matching cards for a special gift using these!  Here are pictures of the individual cards. 








Basic instructions for my project are at the end of this post.

For lots more inspiration, please visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see what the design team has created for you this week!

I'm submitting this to the flollowing challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #73 - Anything Goes
Tuesday Throwdown #140 - Something Dimensional - box

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope this gives you a little inspiration!

Blessings!
