Heartfelt Creations - Floral Dress Collage


Happy Wednesday!

It's time for Heartfelt Creations' new release for April!

Heartfelt Creations invites you to “Celebrate the Journey” with this classic travel-themed collection.  Whether you are traveling around the world or around the block, you will find papers, stamps and dies to document your life’s adventures.  The coordinating stamps and papers feature maps, compass roses, bicycles, hot air balloons, vintage suitcases, boarding passes and postcards. The clever Luggage and Tag die even creates a delightful 3-D suitcase! Soft hues of light green, deep teal, pink and rose merge with subtle, neutral backgrounds that are richly layered with beautiful fonts, flourishes and focal images.  “Celebrate the Journey” is just the ticket for both masculine and feminine projects, the perfect traveling companion for all of life’s journeys great and small.

Leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creation blog by April 15th and you will be entered to win the entire collection valued at $180.00.

For my first project using this new collection, I used the Floral Dress Collage PreCut Set to create a feminine card.




I stamped this beautiful image on pink and aqua designer papers from the collection and colored them with pencils.  Portions of the pink image were fussy cut and pieced on to the aqua image with pop dots.  I added some Sage Advice Mini Prills to the flower centers and an extra flower on the center of the lace bow.  (Complete supplies and instructions are at the end of this post.)

Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see the beautiful creations by the designers this week and leave a comment for a chance to win the entire collection.

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #127 - Anything Goes
Really Reasonable Ribbon #92 - Flowers or Buttons & Bows

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings!
