Welcome to my Final Heartfelt Creations Wednesday!


I am sorry to say that this is my final Wednesday on the Heartfelt Creations Design Team.  The past six months have be a wonderful experience to able to work for such a fantastic company and talented team.  It has been a privilege and a honor.  My final project is a bouquet of flowers.  They are the best kind though, they are all created from paper and will last forever.    I used several different flower stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations to create this arrangement. 


Heartfelt Creations Products:


Other:  die cut machine, pink card stock, lilac card stock, lavender card stock, purple card stock, lavender and black diamond Stickles, pink and mauve netting, 22 gauge floral wire, floral tape, crystal gemstones, hot glue gun, Memento ink Tuxedo Black

How it is made:

Stamp the various flowers on the colored card stock with Tuxedo Black ink.  Stamp one of each size of the stamp for each flower that you would like to make.  After all the stamping is completed, cut them out using the matching die and a die cut machine.  After all the flower petals are cut out, use the Paper Blossoms Molding Mat and Tool Kit to shape all the flower petals.   To assemble the flowers, glue the smallest to the largest in the center using the hot glue gun.  Attach the flower to the floral wire and then wrap the wire with floral tape.  In this bouquet there are roses, calla lilies, daisies, posies.  To help fill in the bouquet, cut a square of the netting and add it to a piece of floral wire and then wrap the wire with floral tape.  I also added bling to the bouquet by attach crystal gemstones to floral wire and then wrap the wire with floral tape.  Add lavender Stickles to the center of the daisies.  Add black diamond Stickles to the center of the posies.  Arrange the flowers in the vase and then add marbles to the vase to help hold the flowers in place.
