Leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creations blog by April 16th and you will be eligible to win the entire release valued at $180.91

For my first creation with this collection, I have this beautiful lighthouse scene.

I love the soft beachy colors on the designer papers for this collection. I did this lighthouse image is sepia tones to go with the papers for that beachy feel. It is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits and die cut with Labels One and Decorative Labels One. The sentiments are die cut with the tag dies from the new Decorative Flower Pot Dies, attached with linen thread and attached to a bow made from Crumb Cake Seam Binding. You can find complete instructions at the end of this post.

Make sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog and leave a comment for a chance to win the collection. Also, be sure to check out all the beautiful creations from the designers this week, they are GORGEOUS!

Blessings!
