Beautiful Sunrise Lilies

Welcome back

Just a quick post showing you my creation using Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily flowers on a book card.  This is my first effort at using this svg file from Forever Memories that I have cut on my Cricut Explore and I will be changing a few things next time such as shaping the card a bit more and using foam dots for more dimension.

#HeartfeltCreations #ForeverMemories

Materials used:

Cardstock – American Crafts, CTMH Colonial White, White Daisy

Stamps – Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily

Die – Heartfelt Creations Sunrise Lily

Inks – CTMH Creme Brulee, Sorbet, Fern, Sweet Leaf, Blush

SVG file from Forever Memories For You

I am in the process of sourcing new inks as I am finding the CTMH inks fade very quickly in the sun in the window of the shop.

This card is for sale at Gift Hutt here.

Happy Crafting.
