Kia Ora and Welcome Back

Today is Inspiration Wednesday and I have a card from the sweet Singing in the Rain collection.  Today also sees the start of the voting to keep your favourite Design Team members on the team.  I would love it if you could take the time to vote for me to stay on the team so you can see more of my creations from Heartfelt Creations.

Vote for your favorite design team members: When we announce a new design team call, that also means that we have a tough time deciding which of the current designers continue on the design team. We are giving you the opportunity to get involved and vote for 5 or more of your favorite design team members: http://hcgo.co/DesignTeamVote2018. You can only vote one time and you have to select 5 or more to be eligible to participate. Voting ends on February 9th, 2018.

For more tips on creating with the Singing in the Rain collection, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/_J85LChrXSs.

Instructions: Cut a piece of white cardstock at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″ along the long side and fold to create a base card of 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. Cut a piece of orange patterned paper 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and adhere to the front of the card. Cut the panel from the patterned paper and die cut the centre out with the circle die from the HCD1-7154 Circle Basics – Small. Adhere the frame to the card front with foam tape and then adhere the circle in the centre with Dries Clear Glue. Die cut the decorative element from the HCD1-7150 die set from the Iris cardstock and adhere to the top of the card as shown.

Stamp the sweetheart flowers, blossoms and leaves from the HCPC-3811 Rain Boots and Blossoms Stamp set in Jet Black ink on Bristol Smooth cardstock and die cut with the coordinating dies. Colour with Zig Clean Colour Brush markers, shape and adhere around the top of the umbrella as shown.

To make the flowers stamp the images from the HCPC-3769 Wildwood Florals Stamp set in Lavender, Danube Blue, and Rose Coral inks on white cardstock and die cut with the coordinating dies. Sponge the edges of the coral flowers with the Rose Coral ink, the purple flowers with Lavender ink, and the blue flowers with Summer Sky ink. Shape with the Deluxe Flower Shaping kit and add Heart of Gold prills to the centres and Crystal Clear Glitter with Dries Clear glue. Adhere around the foliage above the umbrella as shown.

To finish, cut the sentiment out of the patterned paper and adhere to the bottom right as shown.

Happy Crafting
