Art Impressions water colour wagon

Happy Thanksgiving.
I have a new passion to share along with my love of Heartfelt and that is Art Impressions water colour stamps.  Check out www.artimpressions.com  They have a nice selection of rubber stamps that you use to create mini scenes.  You colour the stamps with a water based marker, stamp on water colour paper and then use a barely damp brush to blend the colour in a dabbing motion.  Bonnie the owner of Art Impressions has a lot of great videos on this technique.  I have signed up on face book and via email to get information on their next video which is generally on water color Wednesday.
Here is the video for my inspiration.

Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily class

If you are like me you are so looking forward to spring.  The sunrise Lilly collection by Heartfelt Creations is sure to chase away the winter blues.  I taught this class today at Crop A While, using the card kit by Heartfelt Creations.  There is lots of shimmer and shine added using glitter and Wink of Stella.  Then I  used Glossy accent glue as a varnish on top to give even more shine.  I used Tim Holtz distress ink to colour the lilies.  Gold Prills were added to the stamen centres for added dimension and detail.

Sugar Hollow; Heartfelt Creations: From our home

Here is my newest Heartfelt Creations card using the Sugar Hollow collection.  It is  a 5x7" card and I have turned it horizontal so that the flap looks like the roof of the owl house.All the flowers are made using the Birds and Bloom set by Heartfelt Creations.

The flowers are coloured using Tim Holtz distress ink.  Pale pink Prills were used in the flower centres to add dimension.

Heartfelt Creations, Sugar Hollow, you're a hoot easel card

An Easel card is a fun fancy fold card.  Cut cardstock 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" and score at 2 1/8" and again at 4 1/4"  on the 8 1/2" side,  To make the easel card base.
I then attached a panel of 4 1/4" X 4 1/4" and layered a paper panel from the Sugar Hollow paper pad by Heartfelt Creations.
Take a look at the close up of the front of the card for all the flower details that I added.

The flowers are made from the Birds and Blooms set as well as Ariana Blooms for the larger flower.
