HEARTFELT CREATIONS - JULY 18, 2012

EXCITING NEWS!  This month Heartfelt Creations is delighted to release their very first line of Heartfelt Creations paper. Check out the beautiful patterns, luscious colors, and organic textures. Some come with their stamp images in them; others are abstract. This will add some fun and variety to your creations!

The Classic Edition Collection stamp sets and die release is gearing towards the fall season and colder days. A rustic truck, wooden wagon, playful dog, berries, apples, and pumpkins will keep you busy creating as the sun begins disappearing earlier in the evenings. Our card samples will give you many ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Leave a comment on the HC blog by July 24th and you will be eligible to win the entire release.

The first card I created with the new set features Grandpa's Truck pulling a wagon full of pumpkins.  This truck is so cute!  The exclusive HC die even cuts the door open to reveal a dog in the seat.  How fun is that!

 My next card features these yummy looking raspberries!  They are fun to color and look good enough to eat!

Check out all the great projects by the HC Design Team and don't forget to leave a comment on the HC blog for a chance to win the entire new collection.  Have a good week!
