Christmas Card Keepsake Book

2/13/2019

In this video I share and show you how to create your own Christmas Card Keepsake Book. I was so tired of just having stacks of cards stuffed in boxes. With this easy to make keepsake book I can now see all of my favorite pretty papers and cards. Now they can stay out in a prominent place where I can look at them anytime to share and for inspiration. It's even more important to do this now that many people send picture cards. This is a nice easy to put together a book for all kinds of letters, cards, and photos combined. Enjoy!

Heartfelt Creations Buttons and Blooms

I had such a great time working with the papers, dies, and stamps from this collection. I love the sewing and stitching theme. The sentiments such as "Hope you're on the Mend" are befitting of the images and very useful for Get Well Cards.

The colors of the papers are gorgeous and I really love the quilt images. The flowers match so well with their patchwork petals and the little decorative buttons are the perfect fill in embellishments.

Blossoms and Blooms by Heartfelt Creations

WOW! The Heartfelt Creations Blossoms and Blooms stamps, dies, and shaping mold create gorgeous life like blossoms easily and quickly. I enjoyed making these blossoms without spending hours shaping all of the petals by hand and they came out so beautiful. If you haven't tried any of the shaping molds yet, they are truly worth the investment. You can make so many beautiful flowers to cover your paper projects without wearing out your hands. They are wonderful if you have a big event coming up where you need many flowers for a tablescape, invitations, or to adorn party favors. Best of all they are just plain fun to use.

Heartfelt Creations Sweet Peony Collection

YAY it's pink. If you love peonies and pink the Heartfelt Creations Sweet Peony Collection is for you. I've already started working with the collection and my fave is the Peony Bud and Blossoms Stamp Set. I was hoping Heartfelt would release a nice large flower stamp and this one is perfect. They always make my wishes come true. I started coloring these guys in as soon as I received them. They are just beautiful.

I colored this beautiful blossom in with the Arteza Brush Pen Markers. Watch for an upcoming video with a review of these markers and you'll be able to see snippets of me coloring them. In the meantime, if you would like to see a close up of the entire collection watch the video below. Stay warm everyone. Spring is coming!!!

Heartfelt Creations Lush Lilac Collection

2/16/2018

Wow! This collection is truly gorgeous. I love the beautiful pastel colors. The cottage like garden scenes on the papers are a perfect match with the bird cage die and the lovely umbrella stamp spilling over with blossoms would make any shower invite a hit with the invitee's. I just had to create a card right away. This double fold card was easy to make using the papers from the pad for the background. The die that pops out a plentiful number of the little lilac blossoms combined with the new floral mold allowed me to quickly and easily create lots of three dimensional flowers. 

I couldn't wait to die cut the bird cage and emboss it with a pretty sparkling turquoise powder. The cage was then glued to just one of the card panels. All that was left to do was to add the blossoms. In no time flat  an elegant card to gift on a special occasion was complete.

Placing Flowers in the Boots

1/29/2018

​I had so much fun coloring the boots and flowers from the Heartfelt Creations Singing in the Rain Collection. I just had to create some cute little cards with them. I used Dr. PH Martins inks and a small paint brush for the coloring. This was the first time that I had tried these inks on stamped images. I just loved working with the vivid colors. Although it takes a steady hand to paint the stamped images with a brush, I think it would be worth the time and effort when you are looking to create a strong presence of color.
Picture
If you would like to find the same colors that I used (which are from ink set #2), feel free to jump over to my affiliate store which leads to an amazon link page with the exact same ink set. The Heartfelt Creations Stamps and Dies are right here in the HuckleberryHerbs.com store. I used both the Rain Boots and Blossoms Stamp Set and the Raindrop Sentiments Stamp Set. 

The video below does not show the coloring but instead the process of putting the cards together. In it I show you how to cut the little boots so that you can place your flowers into the top of the boot. I hope you enjoy the video.
