Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It's time for a little inspiration from Heartfelt Creations!  Today I have a "You Are My Sunshine" Card and a matching wood hanger to show you!



 
 
 

(Click on photo for a better view)



The card is made using one of the journal blocks from the Daphne Paper Collection that I stamped with a sentiment and added some leaves and flowers.  I popped this on an embossed background and added some pearls and ribbon.  Very easy card to put together using these pretty papers!

I decorated the small wood hanger (8.66" x 4.53") by painting it and then adhered designer papers from the collection to it with Mod Podge. I then embellished it with the same flowers, leaves, pearls and ribbon as the card.  This would be perfect for hanging a baby dress in a baby's room or a pretty wall hanging in any room.  I think this would make a beautiful gift for someone!

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beautiful creations this week by the design team!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #95

Blessings!
