Patchwork Daisy Collection-New Release by Heartfelt Creations

Hello

Its a new release day at Heartfelt Creations. I am so excited to show off the new collection that is so beautiful.

Reminisce of days gone by when laughter filled quilting bees were a treasured outing filled with chatter, decadent dainties and a great sense of accomplishment at the end of the day!

Little girls admiring beautiful hand-stitched quilts coming together under the direction of the hands of skillful seamstresses, as they imagine the day that they too will learn the secrets of perfect stitching and delicate embroidery.
Let your mind wander back the days when pretty hand-stitched blankets lined Grandma’s clothes line, flapping in the breeze as daisies danced gently in the background!
Join us as we remember simpler times with the old fashioned Patchwork Daisy Collection! Immerse yourself in designer papers filled with soft and gentle hues reminiscent of purple lavender filled fields, warm sunshine yellows, clear sky blues, and beautiful wildflower pinks.
Feel the gentle warmth of a hand stitched quilt as you are embraced by dainty illustrations of tranquil floral, decorative patterns and delicate patchwork panels similar to those on Grandma’s finest coverlet!
A wonderful array of  beautifully detailed cling stamps, along with coordinating dies provide endless “embroidered and quilted” embellishments to adorn all of your handcrafted projects…from dainty daisy  floral delicately illustrated, appearing to have been cut from decorative quilt blocks and then hand-stitched, to a wonderful assortment of graceful eyelet trim borders perfectly designed for “finishing” your handcrafted projects!
The perfect assembling of decorative papers, clings stamps and coordinating dies to blend with the previously released Buttons and Blooms Collection! So, gather your crafty friends around the kitchen table…it’s time to laugh,snack, reminisce, and show off your creative handiwork!

Here is my card to showcase this collection.

Anniversary card for a special Couple

Hello

This is Anita here with another beautiful inspiration.
Anniversary is always a special occasion for everyone and we relive those happy happy moments when we met with our soul mate and tied the knot. Its a moment of celebration and happiness.

To mark this occasion, I have a special card for my lovely friend who will be celebrating her 25th Anniversary. She requested me to make a card for her and I had some lovely papers with golden hues perfect for the moment.

I have created many such cards that you can see here and here
 
For my card here, I have chosen the scrap


booking papers from the store along with the dies.
This card measures 7 inches by 7 inches and has lot of layers. The flowers have been made with foam and I have added some golden tuille to add some softness to the layers.

Don't you think tis looks so pretty!!! The yellow flowers goes very well with golden colour. It is so easy to make these flowers. Just use the Flower set # 5 to cut the flowers in yellow foam . Put each flower on hot iron till they curl up. Adhere two layers together and put the pollens in the center and your flower is ready.

See the full card here .

Here are all the supplies used for the card from the Craft passion store
