Tropical Floral Side Step

This is the last sample card I made using the Heartfelt Creations stamp sets that coordinate with the Spellbinders Rose Creations dies.

Again I used HCPC 3409 Tropical Floral Swirls and the single flowers from the Botanical Floral 2 set. I love these stamp sets! The flowers were stamped, colored and cut out and adheresd to the side step card. The sentiment is a $1 stamp I bought at Michaels at least 2 years ago but it is one of my favorites.

This is the last card for this month. I made it! I had a contest going with my friend Gloria of Gingerbread and Pansies to post every day for the whole month. There were times when I didn't think I would make it. Thanks for the challenge Gloria it was fun but a lot of work!

Black and White

Another Heartfelt Creations stamp. HCPC 3409 Tropical Floral Swirls.

 

I stamped the image on black cardstock with Versamark ink and embossed with white embossing powder. I then used the individual flowers from the Botanical Floral 2 HCPC 3407 to stamp and cut out three extra flowers that are attached with dimensionals. The border is a Martha Stewart punch Swirling Lace. A few red gems finish it off.

Heartfelt Rose

For this card I used Heartfelt Creations HCPC 3406 Botanical Floral that coordinates with Spellbinders Rose Creations dies.The stamp set is available at Dutch Paper Crafts.

I stamped the three largest flowers on pink paper with a darker pink ink and then made the flower. The medallion is from Spellbinders Parisian Motifs set and the flourishes are from Marianne Designs.

Leaf Medley

This is the second sample card I made using another stamp from the Heartfelt Creations HCPC 3405 Leaf Medley set.

I drew a circle lightly with a pencil and then stamped the wreath erasing the pencil mark when the ink was dry. A few red gems and a bow finished the wreath off.

Samples

This is a card I made as a sample for Dutch Paper Crafts using Heartfelt stamps and Spellbinder Rose Creations dies. I will be sharing the rest of the cards over the next few days. You can go to Darlene's blog to order the stamps now.

This card uses Heartfelt Creations HCPC 3405, Leaf Medley. The aperture is cut with Spellbinders labels 18 and backed with vellum with a sentiment from Stampin up.. I stamped the leaf image twice, colored them and cut them out. The flower is made with the Spellbinders Rose Creations die.  I put a piece of DP and a piece of vellum together and punched the butterfly with a Martha Stewart punch.

More Tealights

As I bought 50 of the tealights I have been going to town! My biggest problem is that I don't have many solid stamps. I tend to buy outline stamps that I can color. I did find this solid flower stamp from Stampin Up in my stash and as I don't have many colored ink pads I used markers to color on the stamp. Very time consuming when you are using different colors!

While mulling over the fact that I don't have solid stamps I came up with another idea. Use printed tissue paper. I usually buy pretty tissue paper at Christmas time. When I went into my Christmas wrapping box I didn't have one single sheet! I know it will work so the next time I am at the Dollar Tree that is what I will be looking for!

Let It Snow!

Here in South Texas we will take any kind of wet stuff be it rain, sleet, hail or snow!

I made this card using a clear stamp set I bought last year but never used.  The DP is punched with a Martha Stewart snowflake edge punch. The image is colored with pencils and the sentiment is from a clear $1 stamp set.
