Heartfelt Creations May Release!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It's time the new release from Heartfelt Creations!

We are pleased to introduce the Sun Kissed Fleur Collection. This collection includes 2 dies: the Gift Ensemble die (yes, you can make a fancy box with this die!) and the Sun Kissed Fleur die which cuts out 10 different flowers at a time. How's that for value?
The paper collection, called Sun Kissed Collection, comes in vibrant aquas and oranges and fades to light greens and yellows. The paper pack comes with 24 12 x 12 papers that have designs on both sides and are acid & lignen free. There are 2 sheets per design; some are dramatic; others are subdued.
You also have a wonderful selection of floral stamps to choose from: fancy tags, an overflowing basket, beautiful patterned backgrounds, borders and corners.
Leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creations blog by May 14th and you will be eligible to win the entire release valued at $180.91

Here is my first creation with the new collection:








I used this beautiful basket image from the Sun Kissed Tags & Basket Set and added some extra flowers from the Sun Kissed Fleur Set that has the matching die.  I colored the image with pencils and mineral spirits and fussy cut the image to pop in on the white embossed background inside the frame.  I added a couple of leaf swirls from the Gift Ensemble Die, cut from the designer paper and added the extra flowers to them.

The green frame was made by embossing with the Scrollwork Folder, die cutting the oval and trimming the outside up to the scrollwork design.  I kind of like how this came out!

You need to go the the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see Emma Lou's fabulous video showing you the collection!  I love how she does these videos showing and explaining everything!  You can also see all the designers beautiful creations this week, including all the new designers...wow, what a talented group of ladies!  Lastly, you need to leave a comment there for a chance to win the whole collection!

Thanks for stopping in today!

Blessings!
