Heartfelt Creations - So Grateful For You

Happy Wednesday!

I have a little inspiration for you today using Heartfelt Creations stamps, dies, and designer papers!  "So Grateful For You" is the sentiment on the card, but I sincerely am grateful for all you who stop by my blog and leave me sweet comments!  It so makes my day and pushes me to keep creating!  Thank you so much!




Pieces of this card, mainly the flower and card base, have been floating on my desk for quite a while.  Finally, this week I came up with something I was happy with and hopefully you are too!  (You can click on the photo to get a better look and complete instructions are at the end of the post.)

Next week HC will be releasing their November Release of products!  Instead of doing them on Wednesday, they will be released on Friday (black Friday)!!!  You can check out the HC Blog for a sneak peak of them...beautiful as always...also see all the gorgeous creations from the design team this week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:
Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Blessings!

Kathy

  5. Absolutely stunning flower! It floated around your desk for a while I think so you could enjoy the beauty of it before you had to send it in to HC. :o) This beautiful flower deserved to be the spotlight on the card!

  12. Kathy, Diane summed it up perfectly."Beyond Gorgeous". The flower is exquisite in its shape and coloring and the leaves are some of the nicest I have ever seen. It's a good thing to use the talent God has given you. We are simply delighted to have you post with us.
