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.

Make sure and check out the HC Blog this week to see the other great projects by the other Design Team members and for the big announcement of who will be continuing on the HC Design Team and who was chosen from the Semi-Finalist to be on the HC Design Team for the new term.  Have a good week!
