Mulberry Orchid Bouquet

Happy Wednesday!

I'm back with another card using the Botanic Orchid Collection of stamps and matching dies! This time I'm using the beautiful Botanic Window Die with the orchids and hummingbirds!

There are different ways you can use the window die, I opted to just use the outside of it so I could put the sentiment in the middle.

The flowers and hummingbirds are all colored with pencils and mineral spirits and then cut with their matching dies.

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designers this week! Emma Lou also has a sneak peek of the new Christmas collection, Celebrate the Season, being released next week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenge:

Word Art Wednesday #238-239 - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit!

Blessings!
