HEARTFELT CREATIONS - DECEMBER 19, 2012

Hi everyone!  It is hard to believe Christmas is less than a week away.  I have been feeling under the weather so I am not ready for Christmas - all the presents are not bought, the baking is not done, my cards are not sent - but the house is decorated and I am definitely in the Christmas spirit!  I am really looking forward to spending Christmas this year with family and celebrating the true meaning of Christmas, the birth of Jesus!

 

The card I want to share with you that I created for Heartfelt Creations features Heartfelt Creations Timeless Amour Collection.  I made a Z-Fold card and used gold embossing powder with the rose heart stamps from the HCPC 3506 - Passage to my Heart PreCut Set.  It turned out to be a beautiful card that could be used for Valentine's Day or "just because" for that special someone.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS - DECEMBER 5, 2012

It's Wednesday again and time for another project from Heartfelt Creations!  This week I decided to embellish the gorgeous paper from theHCDP 1 728 - Timeless Amour Paper Collection.  I also love the saying "to a beautiful you" in the HCPC 3509 - Timeless Sentiments PreCut Set and I remembered a package of wooden mannequins I was given at the KaiserCraft booth at CHA this summer and this card quickly came together.  To finish it off I added some crinkled vintage seam binding, some pearl stick pins and of course the lattice heart from HCD 728 - Timeless Amour Die embellished with Zva crystals.  Perfect!

My first card I created  uses the beautiful HCD 728 - Timeless Amour Die from the collection and the HCPC 3506 - Passage to my Heart PreCut Set stamp that looks like a wooden door that fits inside the heart die cut.  Every time I drive by an old weathered looking red barn I think I want to color something to look like that some day.  Well it is not very easy to do!  After a lot of practice I finally got the look I wanted.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS - NOVEMBER 14, 2012

Good Morning!  It's a brisk Wednesday morning here in Northern Indiana.  We had are first snow flurries this week.  I am not ready for snow just yet!

My first card this week I created for Heartfelt Creations uses the beautiful papers and stamps from the Delicate Asters Collection.  The lavender aster is 3D and on both asters I used Tailings Elements in the flower centers for texture.  I also used the beautiful new Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight.

 

SCRIPT ASTER CARD

Since Thanksgiving is next week for my second card I created a Fall Card.  I used Heartfelt Creations HC 3331 - All Seasons PreCut Set and added Autumn Flower Soft to create a beautiful Autumn card.  What I love about this tree stamp is that you could just as easily create any season with different colored Flower Soft.  So very versatile!

HEARTFELT CREATIONS

Candy, Malinda, Johnna, John

Good morning!  I can't believe it's Wednesday again.  Time sure flies when you are having fun.  I had a great weekend traveling to Indianapolis to watch my daughters Malinda and Johnna march with their high school band at the Indiana State Marching Band Finals at Lucas Oil Stadium.

The view from my hotel window

The Fairfield Marching Pride gave one of their best performances and received 7th Place in Class C.  It was the last time my girls will march together since Malinda is a senior this year.  I am so proud of my girls, the Fairfield Marching Pride and the band staff for a wonderful season!



State performance of Fairfield's 2012 Show "One"

Now for my Heartfelt Creations project this week I made a sympathy card.  You always hope you don't need a sympathy card, but it is good to have some on hand when the time comes.  I really like the brown and pink combo on this card.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS - OCTOBER 31, 2012

EXCITING NEWS!  I am happy to tell you that I will be continuing on the Heartfelt Creations Design Team for another six month term.  I truly love designing for HC and am honored to be able to continue working with their wonderful products and the other designers on the team.  In addition to products I truly believe are some of the best on the market, I also have the privilege of working for and with some amazing people.  Linda (HC Owner) and Emma Lou (HC Creative Director) are truly wonderful, caring women and the entire staff of HC are dedicated individuals.  I also look forward to bringing you more of my creations and designs in the coming months.  Thank you to all who voted for me to continue on the team.

It also has been an exciting week in our household since my daughters' marching band, the Fairfield Marching Pride, was 3rd out of 20 bands at Semi-State Competition and they have advanced to the State Marching Band Finals.  On Saturday they will march at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.  Malinda is a senior and Johnna is a Freshman so this will be their last performance together.  It is truly an honor for the band to make it to state and it will be exciting to watch them perform this weekend!

For my Heartfelt Creations project this week I used products from the HC Delicate Asters Collection.  I colored the stamped image with Copics to coordinate with the Delicate Asters Paper Collection, added some Icicle Art Glitter for a little sparkle and finished the card with some gorgeous May Arts Ribbon.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS - OCTOBER 24, 2012

 

I hope you are having a good week!  It is a busy time of year at our house.  My daughters' high school marching band, The Fairfield Marching Pride, received a gold rating at their Regional Competition in Lafayette, IN,  so this Saturday they will be competing in the Semi-State Competition in Indianapolis.  The top ten out of twenty bands in Class C then will advance to the State Finals next week.  Hopefully, they will be in the top ten so they will qualify to perform at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.  The band has been busy practicing and the parents have been busy helping with props, food and transportation.  Regardless of whether the band advances or not, it is a great accomplishment that they have made it to Semi-State and I am so proud of my girls and the entire band for all their hard work this year!

I have an elegant, but easy tag to share with you today created with Heartfelt Creations stamps.  This would be great to tie on a Birthday gift for a special person.  I used vintage seam binding as the trim and I added green polka dot washi tape for a fun embellishment.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS VINTAGE FLORET COLLECTION

Good morning!  Today is my Mom's Birthday so she and my dad are coming over for supper tonight.  I am going to surprise her with her favorite dessert pumpkin whoopie pies.  The girls are so busy with marching band practice that they will have about one hour window of time between band practice and youth group at church to celebrate with Grandma, but we will make the most of it!

 

I have two more projects to share with you this week featuring the Heartfelt Creations' beautiful new Design Paper the Vintage Floret Collection.  My first project features another vintage portrait I purchased at the local antique mall.  I hand made all the flowers with the new HC Vintage Floret stamps and dies and also a few with the HC Delicate Asters stamps and dies.  I stamped and die cut them using the HC Vintage Floret Design Paper.

This month’s paper release is similar to the wallpaper of a quaint Parisian café. The textured flower stamps add a quiet delicacy to every project. The typography is a delightful combination of botanical growth and grandmother’s old typewriter stored away in the attic. There are 5 new PreCut Stamp Sets, one 12x12 Paper Collection, and one beautiful new exclusive Spellbinders Die designed for Heartfelt Creations. Leave a comment on the HC blog by October 16th and you will be eligible to win the entire release valued at $134.93 .

 

The 12 x 12 Vintage Floret Paper Collection is absolutely beautiful, with 24 double sided sheets in a package.

This is the first card I made using the new paper and stamps from HC's Vintage Floret Collections.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS

Good morning!  It sure is beginning to look and feel like Fall here in Northern Indiana.  We are also busy with Fall activities, like attending our daughters marching band competitions every Saturday and going to home high school football games to watch them march at the half time show.

 

It is Wednesday again so I have two more projects to share with you from Heartfelt Creations, but first I wanted to remind you of some important information.  For me to continue on the Heartfelt Creations Design Team I need your vote.  I truly love being on the Design Team and would love to have the opportunity to create for them for another 6 month term, so if you also would like me to continue sharing weekly Heartfelt Creations projects please vote for me.  Also to find my name you need to look at the favorite Designers sections (not the Semi-Finalist) because this is where you vote for those of us who will continue from the current Design Team.  This is the quote from the Heartfelt Blog that you need to look for to vote: 

"Vote for your favorite Designers: When we announce a new design team call that also means that we have a tough time deciding which of the current designers continue on the HC design team. We are giving you the opportunity to get involved and vote for 5 or more of your current favorite design team members. You can CLICK HERE and submit your vote. When you vote, you will also be entered into a drawing to be eligible to win a $50 HC Gift Certificate. You can only vote one time and you have to select 5 or more to be eligible to participate. Voting ends on October 17th, 2012."

 

Now here are my Heartfelt Creations projects for the week.  Both cards are showcasing the newest HC release the Delicate Aster Collection:
