Leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creations blog by June 17th and you will be eligible to win the entire collection valued at $210.90.

For my card this week, I used a beautiful flower image from the Arianna Blooms Bouquet Set.

The image is colored with pencils and mineral spirits and Mini Prills were added to the flower centers.   Here's a little close up for you.

I then die cut the image with an ovals die and matted it with an Elegant Ovals die cut using a piece of rose designer paper from the collection.  The mat behind the image is one of the many pretty card fronts from the designer papers.  I love using these card fronts as a base for cards, they make it so much easier and there are so many to choose from!

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designers this week and leave comment for a chance to win the entire collection!  Wow, HC is VERY generous, that is a lot of products to be giving away!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #136 - Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings!
