Pink Dogwood Frame Card


Happy Wednesday!

It's time for me to share a little inspiration with Heartfelt Creations! This week I have another card using the beautiful Flowering Dogwood Collection!





I love these flowers and they are so easy to work with! I used the floral frame from the Flowering Dogwood Branches Set and Die and then added additional flowers and leaves using the Flowering Dogwood Set and Die. All the images were colored with pencils and mineral spirits.

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see the beautiful creations by the designers this week! There is also sneak peek of the next collection coming up!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday #270-271 - Anything Goes
Really Reasonable Ribbon #158 - Celebrate Theme with ribbon/trim
Crafty Carmakers #182 - Add some texture

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit!

Blessings!

    1. Thank you Miranda! I use the Bow-Easy Tool to make all my bows. The ribbon used in this bow has a slight amount of wire in it so I was able to shape it a little more than normal. Kathy
