For my project this week, I have a card using the Dahlia Cluster Set.

 

 

I stamped the image on Solar White Cardstock, colored it with pencils and mineral spirits and fussy cut it.  I then combined it with three of the Open Leaf Images, colored the same way and cut with the matching dies. 

Here's a close-up of the image, you can also click on the photos for a better view.

The images were popped on a mat of Natural White Cardstock that is embossed on the top and bottom with a border embossing folder.  I also added a sentiment, some beautiful trim, twine bow and pearls.  I really love how this one came out and I hope you do too!

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the gorgeous creations made by the designers this week...wow, they are so beautiful!!!  Also, make sure to leave a comment there for a chance to win the entire release!
