Happy Heartfelt Creations Wednesday.

Happy Heartfelt Creations Wednesday..In some parts of the country Autumn is in full swing..Leaf peeping is going on in the most beautiful and remote places..And I am GREEN with envy!! (It's always green in Florida). There is no Autumn in Florida. I miss the northern seasons. So until I build that cabin in the woods in North Carolina, I will create LO's in fall colors to remind me of what I have been missing.
Heartfelt Creations has the most beautiful collection called Autumn Splendor. I revisited this collection this month to create a few LO's. I also added the flowers from the Botanical Garden Collection.
I found an older LO that I just wasn't satisfied with. I never did like it, so I picked it apart and this is the revised version. I like it much better. Go visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog for more inspiration. The girls really do beautiful work on cards, LO's, and projects.
The semifinalists are working on their projects for the final round!! I am very excited!! The the new Design Team will be revealed on October 26th. That's next Wednesday...I have seen their work and it is Uh-Mae-Zing!!!

I love my Martha Stewart Maple leaf punch around the page set. It was perfect for this LO.


Just a closeup of the flower and leaf cluster. I gave the leaves a little sparkle with some Stickles. I edges the flower layers with Gold Lumiere Paint. It looks so much like gold leaf. The Lumiere paint is so rich in color.

Just another closeup of the flower.
