Welcome to the March Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop


Hi everyone, it is the last Tuesday of the month so today is the beginning of the Heartfelt Creations Alumni Design Team’s monthly Blog Hop.  This month the participating design team members are:

Selma 

Dina
Emilia
Alissa
Sarah 

Lisa <== That's Me

One of our blogs will be randomly chosen and from all those that commented on that blog, the winner will be chosen.  The blog hop will remain open for comments on everybody’s blog through midnight Friday night March 29th.  The winner will be posted here noon on Saturday, March 30th.  The winner will receive a $25 gift certificate.

For my card I cut white card stock to form card base. I cut a piece of plaid card and added to the center of the card front.  I used "For your Special Day" from HCPC 3354 Classic Sentiments stamped with Memento Elderberry ink on white card stock.  I then attached the to the center of the card front.   I cut a mat of purple card stock and then I used a small oval die and a die cut machine to cut out the center of the mat to show the stamped sentiment. I stamped several of the HCPC 3500 Open Vintage Floret on purple card stock using Tuxedo Black ink.  I then cut out the flowers using the matching die HCD 727 Vintage Floret and a die cut machine.  I layered the flowers together and then added purple gemstones to the flower centers.  I stamped the butterfly from HCPC 3499 Delicate Asters & Butterflies using Tuxedo Black on white card stock.  I colored the image with Copic markers.  I cut out the butterfly using the Les Papillions Spellbinders Die.

So be sure to leave a comment and to visit the other talented Alumni Design Team members and let there creativity inspire you.

  33. Interesting use of the plaid paper. I think you could use it for a masculine card as it does not have too much frou-frou.
