For more tips on creating with the flower shaping molds, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/FSdPL7nXvQE.

Instructions:

Card size: 4 ¼” X 6 1/4”, Sponge Pretty Petunia ink on edges of foldout card. Cut back panel top to a curve. Cut decorative paper to fit each panel inside and out, cut an extra panel for the back to make a pocket. Cut 2 pockets from lavender card stock using the Fleur Borders and Pockets. Cut one sheet of blossoms, the scroll and the long Sweet Lilac spray from decorative paper. Stamp color and die cut 1 short Lilac spray from Lush Lilac. Cut out 2 small tags, 1 large tag, 1 ticket and 1 oval tiny tag from decorative paper to match your decorative paper panels. Cut 4 tag hole re-enforcers from lavender card stock (using the Luggage and tags Die). Cut 4 lavender borders with the Fleur Border Basics to match curves on panel tops. Cut the extra back panel into a pocket using the Fleur Border Basics at about ½ the size and at an angle. Use the Lilac Shaping Mold to shape all your blossoms.

Glue each piece of decorative paper to the correct panel and then glue the borders on top. Glue the pockets on by using glue only on the two sides that make a corner. Starting with the front, decorate each panel. Use the cut out scroll stamped with “for My Friend” on the front (I used it right over the scroll which was there). Pop it up with foam tape. Add shaped blossoms to the front then glue a single gold Prill to each center. Sponge glue onto blossoms and randomly on paper then glitter with Crystal Clear. The next panel has a pocket, add small tag, glitter and rhinestones. Next is the house panel, add the small spray at top right, extra blossoms and glitter. Add large spray to back of 3^rd panel (you can see it from the front when the card is closed), glue on extra blossoms and glitter. On the inside of 3^rd panel is another pocket, add another small tag, rhinestones and glitter. For the back (4^th panel), decorate the decorative paper and pocket with blossoms, glitter and rhinestones then make the large tag by adding the ticket “Birthday Wishes” and tiny oval tag “With Love” to the front with a few blossoms at the top and glitter of course!

These classic foldout cards always look good! You can decorate any way you like it and your friends will all love it!! Whoever is lucky enough to receive one will be thrilled!

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 (NKJV)

The Greatest Gift

13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,[a]but have not love, it profits me nothing.

Heartfelt Creations- Singing in the Rain Basket

Good morning!!!

I love this little gift basket and it is very easy to make!

I used Spellbinders Octagon dies for this one.

Cut the Octagon then measure how long it is from one flat side to the other and cut you bottom about 1/8" longer to make up for score lines.

score every 2" (or however long each side of the octagon is that you cut).

Make your bottom wide enough to make a score on each long side about 1/4" in from the edges (these will be the tabs to glue to the front and back). Cut on each score line up to the 1/4" score line that you made.

Glue the tabs to the inside from one side to the other following the octagon line,

that is the basic basket.

Instructions:

Project size: 3 ¾” X 4 ½” X 2 ½” Gift basket. Cut two of the largest size Octagons and a strip of card stock 3 ¼” X 7 ½” from white heavy card stock. Score the white strip every 1 ½” along the long side. Turn to short side and score at 3/8” on both sides. Cut along 1 ½” score lines on both sides only just to the 3/8” score line and then cut each little flap at each end to make a V type flap (V with a flat bottom) You will need them cut like this to go around the corners of the octagons. Fold along each score line and fold flaps inward to glue to inside of octagons then set aside until both octagon tops are decorated.

Cut a straight edge octagon about 1/8” smaller all the way around than your white, from decorative paper then cut another piece of coordinating decorative paper with the scallop edge octagon and glue to white octagons. Stamp, die cut and color images and shape slightly then adhere with foam tape and glue to both sides of basket. Attach bird with a strip of acetate. Decorate the bottom scored strip to coordinate with basket front and back.

Glue bottom strip to basket front and back using tabs that you made on each side of 7 ½” strip and let dry thoroughly. Glue Festive Holiday Die cuts to inside and outside of both sides at the top.

Attach ribbon to make a handle by punching holes on each end and threading ribbon through then tying a knot on each end (on the inside of box). Fill with Opalescent grass and candies or some other small gift.

Galations 5:19-23

19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!

You always think of a sinful nature as being a murderer, thief, liar, but look at that list...quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfish ambition, envy? wow, makes you think and makes you do a little self examination doesn't it?? Let's see, do I envy, well yes, sometimes...hmmm do quarrel? I guess I should be more careful when I am tempted to judge someone else's perceived sin, eh?
I think I better concentrate more on the fruit of the spirit like love, kindness, goodness, gentleness etc...Yup, that is where my heart and head should be and I will keep my eyes on Jesus my Lord, He showed us while on earth and He continues to teach us now, if we let Him.

Lantern Tutorial

Let's get started!

Directions

Step 1

To make this lantern start by cutting 5 Gift of Love Box die cuts out of white card stock. Fold along the score lines and sponge gold metallic ink to the score lines and edges.

Step 2

Cut windows from each panel with the insert die that come with the Gift of Love Dox Die. Adhere vellum inside of each window opening.

Step 3

After the glue is dry, adhere the box together (start with the long straight edges, gluing all panels together before starting on the middle section of tabs). This makes it much easier to put together.

TOP TIP Adhere the top section of tabs together last.

Step 4

Cut out 3 each of the Sweetheart dies (you will need about 2 2/3 of the wide border and 2 1/3 of the narrow border). Score the wide borders at 1 1/2 " then 4" on all 3 pieces (The last piece will be cut to fit, either 2 ends over-lapping a bit in the center or just center 2 1/2 " section for the last side of lantern).

The narrow border is scored in 1 7/8" sections to fit the top sides of each panel.

Glue the pieces to the lantern (top narrow border will need to be clipped at each corner to lay flat). Add pearls to the top of the narrow border and add larger pearls to key points of the wide border.

Step 5

Make several roses to decorate the lantern. There is a video here to show you how you can easily make EZ beautiful flowers with the 3D Rose Shaping Mold.

After shaping and gluing together several roses (gold metallic ink was used to stamp the roses), adhere leaves where you want the roses to go on the lantern and then glue the roses on top of the leaves to finish decorating.

Just add a battery operated tealight to finish! We love to see the projects you make, please share them with us on our Facebook page HERE.

Matthew 25:34-40

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. 36 I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’

37 “Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing?39 When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?’

40 “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters,[f] you were doing it to me!’

Heartfelt Creations- Fairy Bendi Card

Good morning!

This morning I have combined 4 sets to make this little Bendi card.

The new Singing in the Rain, Wildwood Cottage, Flowering Dogwood and Doves and Woodsy Wonderland.

They all have super fun components that make a wonderful fairy garden.

For a fairy garden you have to have some foliage hanging down, bunnies hopping, Birds singing and a wonderful little fairy cottage, right?

The paper for Singing in the Rain is so perfect that I was able to use just it for my inside scenes without the addition of anything else.

Instructions:

Card size: 6 X 6 ½” Cut white card stock 6 X 5 ½” and cut decorative paper 6 X 5 ½” to cover (die cut and glue Regal Border from Lavender and glue to top before adding paper so that it is sandwiched between). Cut two side panels front and back (4 pieces) 6 X 5” and use curved border from Fleur Basics to cut the tops. Cut a Fleur Border from lavender card stock for both sides. Sandwich border between two layers for both sides. Score ½” from edge on both sides (along tallest side on both) for tabs to glue to back of card. Draw a ¼” line on the short end of both and make a tab on both. On center panel, cut a slit to coincide with left flap tab, 4 ½” from left side. On left flap, make a slit to coincide with right flap tab, 2 ½” from left edge. Glue flaps to center in the back using the ½” scored tabs you made on each long end.

I used decorative paper with a scene on the inside of each flap so I did not add anything else this time. For the center and outside of flaps I stamped, die cut and colored cottage, cottage accents, dogwood, wildwood florals, blossoms, fairy, bird in branch, birds, birdbath, and wheel barrel. Emboss cottage with bricks and rub Worn Lipstick over the embossing. Add windows and door and glue to center of card. Add slightly shaped dogwood to each side of center and some flowers at the bottom (avoiding slit). Add Prills to center of flowers, glue Fun Flock to round blossoms. Glue bird to dogwood branch at top right.

For left flap, glue a piece of left over dogwood to left side, glue wheel barrel to right side and pop up fairy with a bird in her hand to left over part of dogwood. For right flap, glue birdbath with bird to center area and pop up bird in branch to right top. (Always avoid slits for ease of opening and closing Bendi Card.). Glue ultrafine glitter to wings of fairy.

1 Corinthians 10:13New King James Version

13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Galatians 6:7-8

7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

Walk in the light of God's word!
