Heartfelt Creations November Alumni Blog Hop

Hello friends. What an exciting time of year! We are so privileged to help bring you the new collection from Heartfelt Creations.

The Alumni Team hops the last Friday of each month. By hopping along with us you have a chance to win a $25 Gift Certificate to Heartfelt Creations.

The hop starts at 8AM DST on Friday, November 27th, 2020 and closes Monday, November 30 at 11:55 PM DST . Winner will be announced on the HC Facebook page on Wednesday, December 2nd, 2020.

All you have to do is leave a comment on each blog in the hop before 11:55 DST on Monday, November 30, 2020. We’ll randomly choose one comment from a mystery blog to win the $25 Gift Certificate.

The base of this card is the 5" x 7" Gateway Fold Card already cut and folded for you to make your card crafting fast and easy.

I used the Ornate Flourish Gateway Die to create the front panel and then made a rose to adorn the center of the card. I used silver mirror card stock for the background which is a bit hard to photograph but is beautiful IRL.

For the left side I used only the cut outs backed with red card stock. On the right side I used the frame and left the top section open to show some pretty paper from the Cherry Blossom Retreat Paper Collection. I then added my sentiments in the center of each panel.

This is a very beautiful and elegant die collection which can be used in so many different ways and I know you will want to add this to your collection.

Heartfelt Creations June Alumni Blog Hop

Hello friends! It's time for another Heartfelt Creations alumni blog hop.

The Alumni Team hops the last Friday of each month. By hopping along with us you have a chance to win a $25 Gift Certificate to Heartfelt Creations. All you have to do is leave a comment on each blog in the hop before 11:55 DST on Monday, June 29th, 2020. We’ll randomly choose one comment from a mystery blog to win the $25 Gift Certificate.
The winner will be announced at the top of this blog post, on the Heartfelt Creations blog and Facebook page on Wednesday, July 1st . If you are the lucky winner, you can claim your prize by contacting socialmedia@heartfeltcreations.us within 72 hours. Please write “Winner of the April Alumni Hop” in the subject line of your email. You’ll find a complete list of the blogs in this hop below.

This month I am sharing a shaker tag made with the Cherry Blossom Retreat collection. The image has been colored with Prismacolor pencils and then I used the smaller tag shape to cut it out. The bridge was stamped with embossing ink and embossed with Copper embossing powder.

I used the Eyelet Circle & Basics Small die to cut the opening for the shaker, added the acetate in the window, and then cut a second tag and stamped the sentiment in the circle. I added the sequins and then adhered the two tags together with pop dots. The larger tag shape was cut from white card stock. I added the dog and kitten from the Happy Camper collection.
