Vines & Blooms Thank You - Heartfelt Creations


Happy Wednesday everyone!

It's that time of the week where I get to share some Heartfelt Creations with you!  This week I have a card made using the new Mat Cut Create Collection!




Even though this collection was designed for scrapbooking, it works really well for cards and altered art too!

The flower image is from the Vines and Blooms Set which I colored with pencils and mineral spirits. I didn't like the way they looked with just purple on the petals, so I added a little white gel pen to them.  I added adhesive pearls, some Diamond Stickles, and White Opal Liquid Pearls to the flower centers.

The sentiment is from the Summer Glory Set that I stamped with the image.  I then used the Cut Mat Create Dies to die cut the image and then I mat for it with the purple designer paper from the collection.

I created a narrow mat under the image to go across the card using more of the designer paper and green card stock.  A bow and more pearls were added to complete the card.

Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the talented designers!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday #144- Anything Goes

Thank you for visiting today!

Blessings!
