Sunflower Bouquet - Heartfelt Creations


Happy Wednesday!

It's time for a little inspiration from Heartfelt Creations!  This week I have another card using the Classic Sunflower Collection!




This collection is just gorgeous, I love working with it for sure!  Beautiful images for coloring and the colors on the designer papers are so pretty!

I colored the images with pencils and mineral spirits, fussy cut the sunflower bouquet and butterfly and die cut the sunflowers with the matching die.  Here's a little close up of the image for you.




Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designer this week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenge:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #150 - Anything Goes

Thank you for stopping by today!

Blessings!
