Heartfelt Creations - Elegant Fuchsia Clusters

Good Afternoon Everyone!
I am somewhat behind with sharing my DT cards for Heartfelt Creations. My son is currently in the middle of doing his GCSE's and I have been trying to help him with his revision! I feel more stressed about the exams than he does, crafting has helped a little but I haven't had much spare time these past few weeks.  I have looked at your blogs to see all your creations, but not always left a comment.
Heartfelt Creations released the Cascading Fuchsia Collection this month and this is the first card that I created.  A floral stamped image that I have coloured with promarkers.


Instructions:
Card Size :   10 1/2cm x 14cm (4 1/4" x 5 1/2")
Create a card blank with the above measurements using white linen card. Stamp the image onto white card using black ink and heat emboss using clear powder. Colour in the image using promarker pens (including blender pen). Die cut the image using the frame die ensuring you centralise the stamped image. Cut a mat from white card to fit behind the frame and adhere these together using foam pads. Adhere to the card front using double sided tape.  Thread the purple ribbon through the corner of the frame and tie into a bow to complete.

As always, the products used can be found on the Heartfelt Creations blog. along with lots more inspiration from the design team.

Thanks for visiting me today, enjoy the rest of your week,

Heartfelt Creations - Pink Floral Heart

Good Afternoon Friends!
Today I have another project to share made using the The Peacock Paisley Collection. I bought an MDF heart and decided that it needed that floral touch.  It was quite a quick project to complete, as the flowers are all on one stamp and one die, done very quickly!  My daughter wanted this to hang it up in her bedroom, will have to make her another one!




Project Size :  The heart size is approx 15 1/2cm x 15cm (6"x 5 13/16")
Instructions:
Select the paper shown from the collection and cut to measure the heart size.  Adhere to the heart shape using glue and cut around the edges. ( I used a nail file to neaten up the edges.) When dry add green ink around the heart edges.  Stamp the daisies onto white card using pink ink. Die cut using the matching die. Blend yellow ink to the flower centres and pink to the petals, allow to dry.  Use the flower shaping kit to add dimension to your flowers.  Add yellow glass beads to the flower centres using glue. Stamp the leaves twice each onto white card using green ink. Die cut using the matching dies. Blend green ink onto the leaves and add dimension using the flower shaping stylus. Die cut a leaf each using green felt. Arrange the floral display onto the heart as shown, some of the leaves I cut up to fill in gaps.  Adhere to the heart using hot glue to complete.
