Wednesday Inspiration with Heartfelt Creations

Today I am featuring a card that I made as part of my submission for the Heartfelt Creations Design Team.  The Classic Petunia collection is so pretty and the colours are fabulous.  In this card I have used both the large and small Classic Petunias to show the flowers cascading over a fence (from the Celebrate the Season Collection).  I wanted to create a feeling of being in the garden and I hope that I have succeeded.

Instructions:

Base card: Cut a piece of white cardstock 10 1/2” x 6”. Score along the long side at 6” leaving the front 4 1/2” wide. Cut a piece of the patterned 6” x 6” paper at 4 1/2” and adhere to the front of the card and the remaining 1 1/2” on the right back of the card.

Stamp the gate from the HCPC-3746 Festive Gate Cling Stamp in Espresso Truffle on white cardstock and die cut with the coordinating die. Lightly sponge the gate with Toffee Crunch and trim of the last 1 1/2” to create the gate. Adhere the gate to the front of card and the fence to the back of the card with foam tape. Stamp the grass from the HCPC-3772 Wildwood Cottage Accents Cling Stamp in Espresso Truffle and sponge with Bamboo Leaves before die cutting out with the coordinating die and adhering to the front of the gate and fence.

To make the pink flowers stamp with images from the HCPC-3785 Small Classic Petunia Cling Stamp and the HCPC-3786 Large Classic Petunia Cling Stamp with the Berrylicious ink and sponge the stamped images with the same ink. Die cut the images using the coordinating die and colour in the back with the Berrylicious ink. Shape the flowers using the HSCT1-401 Heartfelt Creations Deluxe Shaping kit.

To make the green flowers stamp the images with the HCPC-3785 Small Classic Petunia Cling Stamp with Bamboo Leaves and sponge the centres lightly with New Sprout before die cutting. Sponge the edges of the petals with Bamboo Leaves before shaping the flowers with the HSCT1-401 Heartfelt Creations Deluxe Shaping kit.

For the larger flowers die cut the stamens from the green cardstock and roll them up using the quilling tool in the Deluxe Shaping kit and glue together. Dab some glue on the ends of the stamens and dip into the prills and then adhere to the centre of the flowers. Add the prills to the centre of the small flowers with the Dries Clear glue. Adhere the flowers as shown on the gate and fence and on the left top corner.

Stamp more leaves from the HCPC-3785 Small Classic Petunia Cling Stamp and the HCPC-3786 Large Classic Petunia Cling Stamp with Espresso Truffle ink and sponge with Bamboo Leaves ink before die cutting with the coordinating die. Shape, trim and add leaves to the flowers as shown.

Cut the sentiment from the patterned paper and add to the flowers. Finally, add Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Overlay to the flowers.

Thank you for visiting today and I hope that you have a lot of fun with your Classic Petunia Collection.

Happy Crafting
