Welcome to Black Friday.  Once again Heartfelt Creations has done it with an innovative Insta-Album and some stunning dies.  Today I have two cards made with the dies.  This post features a gorgeous wedding card featuring the stunning Ornate Decorative Pocket die with a spray of beautiful Oakberry Lane flowers in pinks on a background of green leaves.

Instructions: Cut a piece of white cardstock 12″ x 7″, score at 6″ along the long side and fold to create a base card of 6″ x 7″. Die cut two pieces of the pocket accents die out of white cardstock and adhere to both ends of the card front. Die cut the decorative die from the HCD1-7179 Butterfly Kisses Decorative Die set in white cardstock. Cut a piece of white cardstock 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ and adhere the decorative die to the square card. Adhere to the base card with foam tape. Stamp the sentiment from the HCPC-3843 Special Birthday Sentiments stamp set in Jet Black ink on white cardstock. Die cut the sentiment using the plain edge die from the HCD1-7162 Eyelet Hearts Die set. Die cut the coordinating eyelet die from white cardstock and adhere the sentiment heart to this die and then adhere to the front of the diamond.

Stamp the blossom images in a variety of sizes from the HCPC-3842 Oakberry Lane Blossoms Stamp set in Vibrant Fuchsia ink on Super White cardstock. Colour the flowers with Buttercup and Pink Peony and die cut with the coordinating dies. Sponge the edges with the Vibrant Fuchsia ink before shaping the flowers in the coordinating mold and when dry assemble with two layers each flower. Add Crystal Clear glitter to the flowers with Dries Clear glue on a damp sponge. Pierce the centres of the flowers and insert the yellow bead stamens and fix with Dries Clear Glue. Ink the stems with Leaf Green ink and twist the stems together to create a larger bouquet and a smaller bouquet. Use florist tape to hold the bouquets together and then using a hot glue gun adhere the combined bouquets to the card front. Add an organza bow to the bouquet to cover the join.

Stamp the leaves from the HCPC-3842 Oakberry Lane Blossoms Stamp set in Library Green ink on Super White cardstock. Colour with a combination of Leaf Green, Fern Green and Vibrant Fuchsia inks and die cut with the coordinating die. Shape using the coordinating mold and when dry add Crystal Clear to the leaves with Dries Clear glue on a damp sponge. Add the leaves to the flowers.

Stamp the leaves from the HCPC-3801 Simply Classic Stamp set in Fern Green ink on Super White cardstock and colour with Leaf Green ink before die cutting with the coordinating die. Shape, trim and adhere around the bouquet.

Cut pieces of florist wire in varying lengths and curl around a pen and adhere around the bouquet with a hot glue gun. Add white bead stamens to the bouquet on both sides.

Stamp the bride and groom image from the HCPC-3789 Classic Wedding Bells Stamp set in Jet Black ink on Bristol Smooth cardstock. Colour in with Zig Clean Colour Brush markers and die cut with the coordinating die. Add Crystal Ultrafine glitter to the dress and veil with Dries Clear glue and adhere to the bottom right of the card with foam tape.

To finish, add pearls with Dries Clear glue on the decorative dies and under the sentiment as shown.
