Happy Wednesday everyone!
It's time for more inspiration with Heartfelt Creations! This week I have a card using the Blooming Dahlia Set.
The large and small dahlia blooms are 2 separate stamps from the set that I combined together and the leaves are stems from the Open Leaf Set. I stamped these all on white card stock, colored with pencils, fussy cut the flowers and die cut the leaves with the new matching die. I wanted the beauty of the flowers to stand out, so I placed them on a white background with a little embossed border on the bottom, a lace bow and some pearls.

Blessings!
