For more tips on creating with the Singing in the Rain collection, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/_J85LChrXSs.

Instructions: My card is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2". Make card base and cover with a piece of the paper collection.

Using black ink, stamp the flowers and the boot onto white cardstock. Color with various inks and Dove Blender Pen. Cut out with the corresponding die. I cut a slice along the top of the boot so I could slip the flowers down inside the boot. Glue the Flower Soft to the flowers used as thistles and allow to dry. Glue the flowers and leaves down on the backside of the boot.

Add a drop of glue to the centers of the flowers on the boot and sprinkle the prills over that and allow to dry. Once dry, use the Dimensional Tape to adhere to the card front.

Pick a piece of the paper collection and using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, stamp the sentiment and then cut out using one of the circle dies. Adhere to card front using dimensional tape.

Debuting the Camelia Carnation Collection from Heartfelt Creations....

 Beautifully ruffled in delicate layers and commonly gifted to express love, fascination, and distinction, the carnation flower is certainly recognizable and a floral garden and arrangement favorite. Thought to be one of the oldest cultivated flowers in the world, the carnation is traditionally associated with the Mother’s Day holiday, but is also known to be a wonderful choice for birthdays, weddings and just because occasions. With an outstanding reputation as a cut flower, and an amazing array of colors and sizes, it is no wonder that the carnation flower remains so popular today! Heartfelt Creations invites you to celebrate the beauty and gentle humbleness of the carnation with the Camelia Carnation Collection! With a color palette of fiery reds, pastel pinks, sunset orange tones, and lush hues of greens, the gorgeous paper collection brings with it a bold but feminine feel. Filled with attractive carnations clusters, exquisite flower gardens, and decorative lace like details, this pretty paper collection is sure to become a perennial favorite. Two cling stamp sets and coordinating dies come together to create enamoring and realistic carnation blossoms with delicately illustrated details and varying sized petals ideal for assembling full sized carnation flowers to charming mini versions, while a third cling stamp set lends itself perfectly to layering and creating dimensional carnation clusters. So join with us as we celebrate and give recognition to the traditional, but somewhat overlooked and under praised carnation flower!

Instructions: My card size is 6 X 6". Cut a piece of watercolor paper 6 X 12" and score in half. Cover with a piece of the Camelia Carnation paper collection and set aside.

Cut the Sweetheart Border Die out of white cardstock and glue to the bottom of the card base. Then I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of coordinating paper using Tuxedo Black ink. I cut out the sentiment with one of the dies from the Cut Mat and Create Dies. I edged the sentiment with Pearlescent Coral ink and then adhered with dimensional tape.

Stamp the flowers with Pearlescent Coral and Sap Green ink. I also used the coral and green inks to color the edges of the flower petals. Run the petals through the Sizzix machine with the Floral Basics Mold. Then finish shaping with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. Stamp the butterfly and cut it out then color with coordinating inks and shape a bit, and then add glitter and glue down on the sentiment.

Hot glue the petals together and then I added the Crystal Clear to the edges of the flowers and set aside to dry. Stamp the leaves and color with Bamboo Leaves Memento Ink. Shape and lay aside to dry. Use the Pearlescent Coral ink and color the seam binding then set it aside to dry.

Once everything is dry begin deciding on the placement of the flowers and leaves and then tie the bow. I used Scor-Tape and Designer Dries Clear Adhesive to glue down the bow. Glue the flowers and leaves and when it is all dry, your card is finished.

Another Heartfelt Creations Wednesday....

HCD1-284 Heartfelt Love Paper Collection HCD1-7161 Sweetheart Borders Dies #159723 Designer Dries Clear Adhesive #85 Crystal Art Glitter #71037 Lipstick Red ColorBox Fluid Chalk Ink Other Products Used: Bling on a string, White Cardstock, Hot Glue Gun Instructions: My card size is 4 1/2” x 6”. Cut a piece of white cardstock 6” X 8 1/2".  On the 8 1/2 side, score at 4 1/2". This makes the card front measure 4” X 6” and the back panel is 4 1/2” X 6”.  Cover the front and the inside of the card with a piece of the paper collection.  Cut out the border die using white cardstock and adhere it to the card front about 1” down from the score line.  Next I chose one of the sentiments from the paper and backed it with a piece of white cardstock.  Use the Lipstick Red ink to edge the white cardstock to match the paper I chose to cover the front of the card with and then glue the sentiment to the piece of cardstock.   Glue this down, tucking it behind the die cut piece.  Next I used my hot glue gun to add the bling along the top edge of the die cut piece. I went back to the paper pad and chose the cute little frog sentiment and cut it out.  I matted it with another piece of white cardstock and then glued it down to the inside of the card.  I used the Designer Dries Clear Adhesive to add some glitter accents to the little fireflies and the cattails.  Once everything is dry, the card is finished!
