Heartfelt Creations Stamps and Dies
HCPC 3384 Cardinal Posy Wreath PreCut Set
HCD 706 Cardinal Family Die
HCPC 3353 Cardinal Family PreCut Set
HCPC 3303 Posy Patch Flowers PreCut Set
Card Size: 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
I stamped my image, extra cardinals and extra flowers onto watercolor paper and colored with distress inks. I cut out the main image and laid aside. Cut out the extra cardinals with the die and glue them to the original image. Cut out the flowers and emboss them with UTEE Embossing Powder to make them look like glass and glued a pearl to the centers; then I glued them to the main image. I then embossed white cardstock with my embossing folder and stamped sentiment to the center of the card front. Glued the main image onto card base and the card is ready to go.
Well that is about it from me today...I'm thinking I'm going to need a nap this afternoon. I'm still moving a little slow since I planted all my flowers Monday. So wherever you are and whatever you are doing, just take a moment to "Breathe"! Stop and smell the flowers....(the ones I planted on Monday). Have a great day and a wonderful rest of the week!

This is absolutely, positively gorgeous, Glenda! I love the white embossed frame and the beautifully colored image!
OMGosh Glenda! This is over the top amazing! Beautifully done!
This is just so Pretty and clean looking. All the coloring and dimension work you did just makes this card. Had never seen that embossing folder before, it looks great with this too.
Gorgeous, gorgeous!! I wish I could say that I'm sore from doing yard work!! Probably should quit hiking all over the country and start working,huh?!
Such a wonderfully beautiful card, Glenda! The cardinals are fabulous, but your flowers are gorgeous! I love how you make them real.
Yes, I know how you feel, every night!Last week I just had to let something go as I was exhausted as well. Just do it, the work will be there next week. Hugs to you, feel better!
Love the glass flowers. This card is gorgeous!
Stunning use of the cardinal wreath image!

The embossed white background is very elegant! Beautiful card.

So, so gorgeous. Love the image in that embossed frame. Your flowers are absolutely fabulous. Fantastic job Glenda.

This is just stunning, beautiful card.
Absolutely beautiful Glenda - I really like the embossing of the flowers, could I also use Liquid Glass and get the same effect or similar? I have to try this on my flowers.
This is just stunning Glenda!!! I love that pop of red and with the embossingon the flowers - it just looks like jewelry on your card! What a beautiful, almost vintage look!
Glenda this is gorgeous. I love the way you cut it all out..WOW that took some time. Very pretty card..I feel your pain in digging. My garden is finally done..
I'm loving these cardinal projects. So springy! And all that fiddly cutting--you are a pro!!
We finally have some beautiful weather out here on the prairies, so that's definitely something to celebrate. Hope all's well in your corner of the world!
This is a gorgeous card! I hope you are enjoying sunshine today.
Glenda, this is really beautiful. I love the shine on your flowers. I've never tried Utee would no doubt have to order it. Having computer problems..no info on my dashboard, so frustrating. Have a Wonderful Mothers Day and we may be getting some temps about 50. Sure will help my attitude!!
Once again your flowers just knock my socks off! You have done some fantastic work while I have been gone! This card is lovely!
oh my God, this card is so lovely! I wish I had so much talent.
