March Heartfelt Creations Alumni Design Team Blog Hop

Good morning everyone and welcome to the March Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop! The hop runs from today until Friday, April 1st. at midnight.  There will be a $25 gift certificate to Heartfelt Creations given away so take this time to leave a comment on as many blogs as you can.   You never know which blog will have the winning comment!  We will announce the winner at Noon on Saturday, March 2nd.


My  card is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 and I used  an Anna Griffin embossing folder called Foundry.  I also embossed my frame after I applied the color.  My Arianna Blooms have Minnie Pearls Prills colored with New Sprout Memento Ink.  I needed some colored Prills and have a limited supply of colors so I decided to give it a try and they took the color pretty well.  I'm all about stretching my products and having them do double duty.

Remember to leave a comment on as many of the participating design team members as possible!

February Heartfelt Creations Alumni Design Team Blog Hop

Good morning everyone and welcome to the February Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop! The hop runs from today until Friday, February 26 at midnight.  There will be a $25 gift certificate to Heartfelt Creations given away so take this time to leave a comment on as many blogs as you can.   You never know which blog will have the winning comment!  We will announce the winner at Noon on Saturday, February 27.


I love tags so I decided to make one using the Once Upon a Time paper collection.  These gorgeous papers do most of the heavy lifting for me!  I cut out the tag and die cut one of the Ornate Borders and Pockets dies at the top.  I think it gives such an over the top look and it's quite elegant.  It really looks like you went the extra mile making this but it is a quick and easy addition.  All I had to do was decide which die to use and then take all the credit!  My flower is made using the Arianna Blooms stamps and die.  I stamped and die cut the flower petals then I used distress inks to color. Bundled Sage in the center and Victorian Velvet for the outer edges of the petals. The center is Gold Gala Glitz.  I sprayed water on the back side of the petals and then shaped my petals and once dry I stacked them to form this flower.  A little tip about the coloring process:  When using distress inks (they are water based) spray on the back side to keep water away from color.  Also the inks don't run as much if they are dry before you spray the water.  You can use a heat gun to dry the ink and then continue shaping your petals.  Next be sure to color your ribbon or seam binding to match your flower and tie a pretty bow!
The sentiment is just a piece of the paper cut out and matted on cardstock.  How thoughtful of Heartfelt Creations to include that for me!

I covered the tag in the pretty Burst of Splendor paper and added the flower trim and bling along the bottom.  I cut out the flower and colored it, then used Glossy Accents to give it lots of shine.  The center is Gold Gala Glitz and it is placed on a pretty accent piece cut out of green card stock.  I then cut out the tag and stamped my sentiment.  Quick and easy and it packs a punch!
