Happy Heartfelt Creations Wednesday!


Heartfelt Creations introduced their beautiful Artistic Gatefold Collection on Black Friday. So many gorgeous dies and stamps to work with. The possibilites are endless. I adore the lacy pattern on the Layered  Scalloped Posy Die. I can see myself using this die over and over again in so many different ways. (and you will too) You should really take a hop over to the Heartfelt site and have a look at these latest additions.

I used the smaller of the dies as an edging across the bottom of the page and inked the edges in Walnut Distress Ink.
The Flirty Fleurs Precut Set are part of the Gatefold Collection. I cut the stamps out and colored the inner area of each flower and leaf with chalk. I added little pearls to each flower center. I love the grouping of those flowers tied in with the Carnation Florals 2 Precut Set.  I stamped both sides of my flowers so when I curl the edges in you have stamp detail showing.
I really love using the Leaf Medley Precut Set and I do use it all the time. These leaves fit in perfectly on so many layout designs. I used some Tattered Angels Glam on them for a little color and sparkle.
