Heartfelt Creations

I am so happy to be one of the semi-finalist for the Heartfelt 2017 design team.

Here are my projects that got me to this point, I hope you will vote for me, just click the link HERE.

Special Day

Cut the heart out of blue paper from Birds and Blooms, use the cut out to trace another larger heart on white linen using the Magic Matter tool and then fussy cut to make a frame for the heart.

Die cut the Decorative Oval and place under cut out heart and glue into place cutting off excess.

Cut a piece of white Fun Foam and then cut with the heart die and stack under heart cut out, glue in place, let dry thoroughly.

Cut a piece of pink paper from the Birds and Blooms paper and adhere under all layers then glue to a card base of white linen folded (4 ½ X 6 ½”).  Die cut the Delicate Border from white linen twice (top and bottom) and glue in place.

Stamp, die cut and sponge color onto the Classic Leaf, Birds, and Flowers then form all on a foam pad with flower forming tools.  Glue flowers together and add Prills in the centers and glitter to the petals.

Glue stems and flower to card front and foam tape little birds, then add ribbon bow and ribbon pieces in the floral spray with glue and glue dots.

Fussy cut a sentiment tag from the Birds and Blooms paper and curl as a wave then glue in place, placing foam tape under the raised portion.

Final additions: Pearl halves on the cross sections of the Decorative oval, clear Wink of Stella on the leaves and birds. 

Fish and Hibiscus

Cut scallop oval from a piece of 4 ½ X 6” chipboard (I used the back chipboard of a water color pad) that has been covered with paper.

Cut same oval out of two pieces of 4 1/1 X 6” Fun Foam and glue together to the back of the chipboard. When dry completely, sponged purple on inside of oval covering chipboard edges, cover outside of chipboard with purple Washi tape.

Stamp, die cut and color fish, flowers, coral, leaves and shells.  I used Copic markers for all but the flowers and leaves, (they were sponged with two Distress colors each).

Form flowers with flower tools and mat then glue together and add Prills and glitter.

Add fiber with glue and glue a piece of the avocado bag to the side of the blue decorative base panel,  then glue the oval cut out top panel (purple decorative paper) to the base.  Add fish (glue the orange fish to the base and foam tape the green/blue fish to the base under the orange fish).

Glue this stacked card to a folded white linen card stock card measuring 4 ½ X 6”.

I then began adding the coral to the sides and bottom, cutting away the extra length on the bottom portion of coral, add in some extra shells where needed.  The Oyster shell with pearl is popped up.

Add in flowers at the top and stuff pieces of gauze in between flowers and leaves for extra texture.

When everything was thoroughly dry, I went back and added Wink of Stella, Stickles, Nuvo-clear (for bubbles), Glossy Accents and pearls to my project.

A Prayer Away

Die cut borders and oval out of white linen card stock-using a grid board, line up borders on oval so that tops and sides and even and straight then add glue to oval only on inside edges of border so that the excess oval and lining can be cut away.

Dry emboss a white linen panel measuring 4 7/8 X 6 with embossing folder and glue to a folded white linen card, 6 3/16 X 5 1/16 then foam tape oval/border combo to the top.

Stamp, die cut, color (on the back side of vellum) and form Asters in double layers, making the second layer a bit smaller on each except the small aster which are two layers of the same size.

Form/scrunch stamen to stand up and add glue to the ends and then add Prills, Glue Dot stamen to each flower center.

Place flowers and leaves on oval die cut and glue in place.  Add crinkled bow with long tails at the left top, arrange tails using extra Glue Dots where needed.   Add extra seam binding between flowers as desired.

Finish top of oval with pearls and add larger pearls to each corner of the card.

Stamp, emboss and die cut sentiment on vellum and glue or tie to top right of oval.
