Heartfelt Creations Wednesday Inspiration something for everyone...

Hello it is Wednesday and if you have been following me you know that Wednesday brings Heartfelt Creations Inspirations.   I have three cards today all different styles using the wonderful coordinating paper collections, stamps  and dies from Heartfelt Creations.

This card would be great for  Mother's Day which is fast approaching.

I just love the look of the paper lace created with HCD 713 Decorative Lace Border Die. The lace fits perfectly over the top of the newly released  HCD 732 Decorative Flower Pot Die from the Balmy Breeze Collection.  For complete details and instructions visit the Heartfelt Creations blog.

My next card is clean and crisp and would be a great card for a man.

Notice that I colored the water closest to the Lighthouse a darker shade that is to show depth.  This was also created from the peaceful Balmy Breeze Collection.

Here is my third card a pretty purple butterfly..............

For this card I let the HCDP1 231 Posy Patch Paper Collection lead me. I used one stamp  from HCPC 3524 Butterfly and Bunny and I colored it the same colors as the paper collection, easy breezy.

Please stop by the Heartfelt Creations blog to see what the designers have created for you.

Thank you for your time.  Have a blessed day!

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.

For detailed instructions please visit the Heartfelt Creations blog.

Thank you for stopping by and do stop by the Heartfelt Creations blog to see what the designers have made for you.

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.
