Debuting the Backyard Blossoms Collection from Heartfelt Creations....

Summer brings with it the excitement of a new gardening season, lounging in the open expanse of the backyard and enjoying the beauty of favorite perennial blossoms dancing gently in the warm summer breeze! Among those returning favorites are the attractive, butterfly loving coneflower! Bright and colorful, these pretty flowers come dressed in a wide variety of hues and quietly display their domed centers and soft delicate petals against the backdrops of ornamental grasses and other decorative backyard plantings! Come along with us as we welcome back the summer season with a walk through the Backyard Blossoms Collection by Heartfelt Creations! Brilliantly hued, and filled with a good dose of summer sunshine, the fabulous paper collection showcases happy shades of bright yellows, pretty pinks, luscious lavenders and glorious greens and showcases lovely lace like patterns, elegant swirls and bountiful coneflower blossoms! Included in this jubilant and cheerful assembling are three exquisitely illustrated cling stamps sets with coordinating dies ideal for all of your summer themed paper craft creations! From large coneflower images, ornamental grasses, to smaller backyard blossom accents, these dynamic illustrations are ideal for creating your very own dimensional flower gardens as focal points on card fronts or as accents on scrapbook layouts! So grab your lounge chair, slather on the sunscreen and join us as we kick back and relax in the backyard enjoying our favorite backyard blossoms!

Instructions: My card size is 5 1/2 X 7 1/2". Make card base and cover with a piece of the paper collection. Cut out the dies from the Frame a Card Leafy Borders, Elegant Border Basics and Fleur Border Basics and color with the yellow and orange inks. Glue down onto card front.

Stamp with Rich Cocoa, color, cut out the flowers with coordinating dies and glue homemade elements to the flowers. Once dry arrange flowers along the die cut and glue down. Be sure and glue the flowers behind the die cut. Find a ticket on the paper and cut out with the Luggage and Tags die then adhere it to the card front using the dimensional tape. Add some of the Crystal Clear here and there to give the card a bit of sparkle.
