Arianna Bird Haven - Heartfelt Creations


Happy Wednesday!

Can you believe it's Christmas Eve already?  I'm so not ready for it!

Today I have a cute floral birdhouse card for you using Heartfelt Creations' Arianna Bird Haven Set for the image and the Lullaby Darlings Set for the sentiment.





I colored the image with pencils and mineral spirits and cut it with a Labels 4 die. The mat behind it is the Elegant labels 4 die cut in white.  The background mat is embossed with Pirouette Embossing Folder and glued to a white card base.  I added Avocado Liquid Pearls to the flower centers and a silk multi-loop bow with an adhesive pearl in the center.

Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see the beautiful creations by the designers this week!  Lots of inspiration there!

I'm submitting this to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #163 - Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings!

Heartthrob - Heartfelt Creations


Happy Wednesday!

It's time for a little inspiration from Heartfelt Creations!  This week I have a sweet hummingbird and bleeding heart card for you!




This image is from the Heartthrob PreCut Set which I colored with pencils and mineral spirits and then die cut it with the Elegant Ovals Die.  I stamped the image again to color an extra hummingbird that I could then pop on top of the original image to make it stand out a little more.
