Happy Wednesday!

We are pleased to debut our first collection of 2014, the Majestic Morning Collection! This collection includes a Majestic Morning die which cuts out 12 different flowers at a time. How's that for value? The paper collection includes card fronts, 6x6 and 12x12 pages that come in vibrant pinks and oranges with rich greens and yellows. This collection also has a wonderful selection of floral stamps to choose from. For a very limited time we will be offering a card kit with this collection. See it Here

For my first creation with this beautiful new release, I made a gift bag using the tutorial I did back in November.  The bag is made using the Labels 23 Grand Die.  Here is a picture of the front of the bag with the flower image from the Majestic Morning Bouquet Set.  Aren't the colors beautiful!





I colored the image with pencils and mineral spirits to match the beautiful designer paper from the Majestic Morning Paper Collection that you can see underneath.   I fussy cut the flower image to pop it over 2 of the decorative stems from the Ornamental Add-On Die cut with white card stock.  I also popped 2 extra flowers over the image using the Majestic Morning Background Set and matching Majestic Blooms Die.  To finish the flower I then added some Champagne Microbeads to the center which I thought went nice with the yellow flowers on the designer paper.

Here is a picture of the other side of the gift bag using more of the flowers from the Majestic Morning Background Set.





I also added some leaves using the Open Leaf Set and matching Classic Leaf Die under the flower, then one of the decorative lattice die cuts from the Ornamental Add-On Die.

For the sides and handle on the gift bag, I used a heavy trim, added a couple of bows and pearls, then added one of the tags from the designer paper using a narrow ribbon.




Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designers this week!  Make sure to leave a comment there also for a chance to win the entire Majestic Morning Collection!
