Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

Happy Wednesday!

It's time for some inspiration from Heartfelt Creations!  This week I made a very simple card using the Vintage Floret Collection.  I keep thinking that it's missing something whis is probably because I didn't use any ribbon or a bow, but I didn't want to cover up the pretty designs on this.



The main panel for this card is done with the Vintage Floret Designer Paper.  I added flowers to match the paper and create a flower cascade.  I finished it by adhering it to an embossed card base and adding a sentiment.  I hope this give you a little inspiration this week!

Please visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the gorgeous creations by the design team this week!

I'm submitting this to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #57.

Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings!

Kathy
