Heartfelt Blooms (Sale-a-bration sneak peek) - thank you

I hope everyone had a wonderful (and warm) start to the New Year. If you're living in Canada, the thermometer is depicting extreme Artic conditions.  Last night the temperature in Peterborough, Ont. was minus 30 degrees (C).

Because it's been so cold any thought of outdoor New Year's activities was canceled, so it was a perfect time to stay in the craft room and play with some new catalogue products as well as the Stamparatus. Heartfelt Blooms was number one.

Only 2 more days and the products (with the exception of the Stamparatus which will be available for order in the new catalogue in June) will be available for order.

I'm really surprised how much detail showed when this relatively large flower from the "Heartfelt Blooms" stamp set was stamped.  I used the new Stamparatus, not because I needed to, but because I wanted to play with my new "toy".


Berry Burst was used to stamp the image onto Whisper White cardstock, which was then matted with Berry Burst card stock. Three metal rimmed pearls were placed on the upper right of this art piece.



The card base is Berry Burst,, layered with Whisper White embossed with the new Scattered Sequins embossing folder.  Towards the left, a strip of Perfect Party DSP was added, and some Berry Burst crinkled Seam Binding ribbon added over the seam.

The art piece was added to the card front using dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped with Berry Burst on  a piece of Whisper White notched at both ends.

A bow made with the crumpled seam binding was added to the left side of the art piece.

Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Heartfelt Blooms
Ink:  Berry Burst
Papers:  Berry Burst, Whisper White, Perfect Party DSP
Accessories: Scattered Sequins Embossing Folder, 1/2" crumpled Berry Burst seam binding, dimensionals, metal rimmed pearls. Stamparatus
