HC BALMY BREEZE RECAP - APRIL 17, 2013

Hi everyone!  I am back this week to share three more cards I made with Heartfelt Creations new Balmy Breeze Collection.  I had so much inspiration for this new set since I just spent a week with my family during Spring Break in Sarasota, Florida.  I even used some of the small shells I collected while on vacation on my  Beach Scene Card.  I hope you enjoy all my cards this week because I had so much fun creating them.
