Heartfelt Sweetness

Hello and Welcome to another Heartfelt Creation Inspiration Wednesday!
We are pleased to introduce the Sweet Juliet Collection. This collection is inspired by the beauty of ancient rooms locked away and laden with antique treasures. These rooms are filled with yellow candlelight and dusty vases. Crinkly letters lay scattered around, turning crisp and fading more every day. A postcard lays covered in thick dust, forgotten in a dark corner. Wildflowers lay around, as crisp and crinkled as the beautiful wallpapers. Using these detailed floral and typographical stamps, complemented by black, gold and burgundy papers will enable you to create an outstanding classical creation.
Leave a comment on the Heartfelt Creations blog by October 15th and you will be eligible to win the entire collection valued at $150.


These gorgeous blooms seemed just perfect for coloring with Prismacolor Pencils.  I stamped the image several times, some with masking, colored and then added the circle sentiment.  So easy and yet I think it packs a pretty good punch!   For detailed instructions check out the bottom of this post. 
For more amazing inspiration, check out all of the work by the talented Heartfelt Creation Design Team on the Heartfelt Creations blog.

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

Lee Ann  :)

Instructions-
Fold 4.25 x 11 piece of white cs in half for card base. Cut purple dp from Delicate Asters collection for bottom mat. Cut piece of white cs just a little it smaller than the purple dp mat. Mask one arm, or branch, of the floral image in the Juliet Spray Precut Set, ink up the other half with black ink and stamp horizontally and to the left at the middle of the white cs. Re ink the image (with half still masked) and stamp horizontally and to the right at the middle of the white cs. You should know have flower sprigs across the middle of the horizontal white cs. Now, ink up the entire image and stamp so that the image surrounds one of the already stamped branches-in other words, the already stamped branch should be in the middle of the 'U'shaped flower spray. Repeat on the other already stamped flower sprig. Color the images with Prismacolor pencils. /stamp the large circle sentiment image in Lucky Limeade and again in black ink. Die cut out the entire Lucky Limeade image with a circle die; die cut the center of the black inked image with a smaller circle die. Sponge the Lucky Limeade circle with Pear Pizzazz ink; color the black circle image with Prismacolor pencils.
Assemble-adhere rectangular white cs with flower images onto dp mat. Wrap baker's twine 3 times around mat assembly and tie off to the left. Twine should be offset from the center of the card just a bit. Adhere the large circle sentiment with dimensionals as shown. Adhere the smaller circle on top of the larger circle with dimensionals. Stamp sentiment on white cs and die cut out with large tag die. Tie to white baker's twine and make a bow. Add bling as shown.
