 Welcome to the Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop. The hop begins at 8AM EDT on Friday, September 30th, ,2022 and runs until 11:55PM EDT on Monday, October 3rd, 2022.

We will choose a comment from one of the designers blogs to win a $25 Heartfelt Creations Gift Card. Heartfelt Creations is also giving away a second $25 gift card for a randomly chosen comment from their blog.
The winners will be announced on the Heartfelt Creations blog and Facebook page on Wednesday, October 5th. So check back to see if you may be 1 of 2 winners!

Today I created a slim line card. I cut and scored a 3 1/4 x 8 1/4 piece of heavy white card stock and folded it in half to create the card. For the background I cut strips from  the Climbing Clematis Paper Collection, and adhered them onto a 3.5 x 8.25 piece of card stock in a diagonal fashion. It is a fun way to use up the leftover papers that you may have. I placed that piece of card stock onto the card leaving a 1/4 inch border all around. 

I matted the Happy Memories sentiment on 2 pieces of the Climbing Clematis paper.



I arranged the Sweet Pea flowers and leaves onto the card. I also tucked in some Leafy Accents leaves. The Sweet Pea flowers were created with Art foam paper, and inked with Rangers Archival Ink in Majestic Purple. I added pearls to the centers of the smaller blue flowers that I inked in Majestic Teal and added some blue glitter Nuvo Glitter Drops in Aquatic Mist. I added tiny star sequins around the finished card to give it a little extra sparkle. 



Thanks for hopping with us today!! Just leave some love on the blogs for your chance to win! xo

  9. Most lovely use of "leftover papers". The lavenders are so soft and the foam flowers make me want to lean over and sniff them. A grand card.
