Heartfelt Creations Alumni Hop...Pretty Posies


Hello there inky friends!  Today I'm joining my fellow Heartfelt Creations Alumni DT peeps as we share projects and inspiration for June.  It's been a while since I created with some new goodies and I'm so excited to be playing with new stamps, molds and embellies from HC!  If you've arrived here from Vicki's blog, you're on the hop trail, if not, you can find the complete hop list at the bottom of my post.

I decided to play with some pretty floral images and some gorgeous dies.  I started out by stamping the Oakberry Lane floral stamp set and then coloring with Copic markers.  After that, I diecut the images using the Oakberry Lane Blossoms Die set.  Next, I placed the diecuts in the 3-D Blossoms Shaping mold and ran them through my machine.  I layered the images with Dries Clear glue then applied some "Lettuce Entertain You Prills" to the centers of each flower.  I set the flowers aside and worked on the backer layer.
I diecut the gorgeous Eyelet Oval Die using a yummy plum cardstock and then mounted the pierced panel onto the border panel using Double Dots Foam Circles.  I then attached some Mini Pearls Prills to the center of the pierced elements to create some added fun.

After arranging the flowers onto the frame, I attached everything with Double Dots Foam Circles and then attached a pink twine bow with a wooden button.  I mounted this panel onto a rich green card base and then trimmed the top filigree from the frame to allow the card to open and close efficiently.  This card measures 4.25x5 1/2 inches.  SO FUN!
Now, I was a bit undecided on the card base color for this card so I thought I'd share the other option that I think I like better...A bit more Summer-Sunshine with this option, I think.  What do you think?



Thanks for hopping over to check out my card.  I hope it inspires you and makes you want to get your crafty goodies out and play!  Please hop over to check out Magda's beautiful creation this month!
