Heartfelt Creations Wednesday Inspirations more than just a card....

Happy  Heartfelt Creations Wednesday everyone. It is finally Spring like here in  Southeast Michigan and with Spring we get green grass and with green grass we get the cows in the pastures and that makes me think of my childhood days on the farm. Nothing is better then fresh ice cold milk from the milk can and warm cookies. That is the thought behind this card.  I thought that this would be nice to give with a plate of cookies or the cookie in the jar mixes or perhaps a box of chocolates.

I stamped the  Milk Can from  HCPC 3517 Busy Bee PreCut stamp set three times and colored it in then I made a few  HCPC 3303 Posy Patch Flowers. I used card stock and  I used the versatile Sunny Day Paper Collection to make both  my flowers and my leaves. The leaves were made from  HCPC 3410 Decorative Basket PreCut. The leaves and posy were cut with the coordinating dies found at Heartfelt Creations.

For the complete printable instructions visit the Heartfelt Creations blog.

This card would be great for upcoming Mothers Day. The flowers remind me of Zinnias. What do they remind you of?

For this card I used Kraft Paper and HCDP1 232 Balmy Breeze Paper Collection. I find it so nice not to have to decide on color combinations. With Heartfelt Creations paper collections the hard part is done. If  you desire to change up the colors then  customize the paper with your color pallet.

Heartfelt Creations Wednesday Inspiration

I think that spring is here. Today the sun was out and the birds were chirping great inspiration for this Heartfelt Creations .

This beautiful bird and branch  is from the the precut stamp set  HCPC 3523 Feathered Friends all I  did was perch the bird in front of the window. I turned  HCPC 3443 Palace Entry into a window on a stucco wall. Then I added a few HCPC 3502 Mini Vintage Floret and cut them with their matching die. This just makes me glad that it is spring.

Heartfelt Creations Endless Inspirations

The days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter a sure sign of Spring.  I really enjoy getting home from work when it is still day light. I get re-energized like when I eat an apple.

  Heartfelt Creations has  stamp sets that you can mix and match and you know I like that. I filled this bucket from HCPC 3516 Antique Essentials PreCut set with apples from HCPC 3487 Classic Additions PreCut set then added the fence from HCPC 3465 Palisade Farmstead  PreCut set then put some ponies in the  pasture from HCPC 3456 Western Bronco PreCut set and found the perfect sentiment from HCPC 3458  Western Collage PeCut set.  I made the perfect masculine burlap layer from HCPC 3515 Burlap Background PreCut set.  I am trying to get the horses to come up to the fence.  We can all have an apple it is a real pick me up.

Please stop by the Heartfelt Creations blog to see the designers delightful combinations.

Thanks a bunch for stopping by here is a card  I made to express myself.

Detailed instructions can be found at the Heartfelt Creations blog.


Have a wonderful week!

Heartfelt Creations tag you are it.

Today I have a tag for you. It is really easy for me to create with Heartfelt Creations stamps and coordinating dies.  I  used the Vintage Watering Can on this tag to show you  where the watering can sits at my place. It sits near my hanging flower baskets.  This hanging flower basket was made using the  Decorative Metal Fixtures Die a perfect weathered wrought iron basket and hanging pole. The background was made by sponging on Viva Decor 3D Stamp Paint  it has texture and a shimmer. I even sponged it on the Vintage Watering Can and the flowers show through so that I could color with markers. You can get the Viva Decor3D Stamp Paint at Heartfelt Creations along with your stamps and dies and that is as good as it gets.

Heartfelt Creations Swans

Today I have for you a beautiful  Golden 50th Anniversary card. I  used  the die and stamps from Heartfelt Creations  newly released Sweet Serenity Collection and the Open Vintage Floret and coordinating die.
When I glanced at the Swans the very first thought that ran through my mind is that Swans mate for life. I thought that they would make a gorgeous 50th Anniversary card.

This close up is to show you the versatility of the Vintage Floret Precut  stamp and coordinating die. Both the vintage rose and the blossom are made from the Vintage Floret stamp and die. You can see that they are two very different looking  flowers from the same stamp and die and that is one of the many reasons that I am so passionate about my Heartfelt Creations stamps and dies. I really appreciate the fact that there is more then one way to use the stamps and dies.
