Inspiration Wednesday with Heartfelt Creations...

Good morning my friends and welcome to Inspiration Wednesday with Heartfelt Creations.  Today we continue along with the Sweet Magnolia collection.  I love these blossoms as they can be used in any number of ways to grace our cards and  other projects from the big and bold to the tiny delicate blossoms.  This morning I have made a sympathy card and have made tiny blossoms to fit on the front.  I hope you enjoy.

Instructions: My finished card size is 5" x 7". Make card base and cover with a piece of 11B of the paper collection. Cut out 3 of the Elaborate Oval Frames and glue together. This gives it good stability. Using the Hydra Sponge apply Dries Clear Adhesive to the oval and sprinkle Crystal Clear Glitter over it. Set aside to dry. Cut out the next smallest die from this set using a piece of 5B from the paper collection, ink the edges and glue down onto card front. When the larger oval frame is dry glue down to card front.

Stamp the Sweet Magnolia blooms using Magenta Hue and color using the same color. Lay onto the mold and spritz with water and run through the die cut machine. Turn out onto desk and using the flower shaping tools add a bit more dimension and allow to dry. Stamp the buds with Rich Cocoa ink and add color using daubers. Glue down the buds with the hot glue gun and then add Crystal Clear glitter to them and allow to dry. Using Dries Clear Adhesive glue down the buds and allow to dry.

Stamp the sentiment using Tuxedo Black ink and cut out using an oval and then cut out a matching oval using the 11B paper to mat. Using Dimensional tape adhere to the bottom of the card.

That does it for me this morning.  If you would like a bit more inspiration, head over to the Heartfelt Creations blog and have a look around at what the other designers have made.
