INSPIRATION WEDNESDAY WITH HEARTFELT CREATIONS

Hello and welcome to my blog.  Today I am sharing a card I made using the stamps, dies, mold and papers from the Purr-fect Posies Collection.
 Other Products: Spectrum Noir Marker FL3, Purple Cardstock, White Cardstock, Cuttlebug Embossing folder

Instructions: Prepare a card base 5 x 6". Cut a piece of purple card stock and emboss it with a Cuttlebug embossing folder and adhere to card base.
Die cut a piece of white card stock using the Eyelet Rectangles die and adhere to the card. Die cut one of the card fronts from the Purr-fect Posies Paper Collection, add foam dots to the back and add to card.
Stamp the flowers and leaves on the Deluxe Paper Shaping paper with Sepia ink, color the leaves with the vivid Chanteuse and color the flower center with the FL3 marker and the petals with the Cactus Flower. Cut out with the coordinating die, ink the edges of the leaves with the Leaf Green and the edges with the Cactus flower making it darker. Place the leaves and flowers in the matching mold and run through the die cutting machine. Put 2 of the flower petals together making one flower, add to the lower left corner and the upper right hand corner.
To finish, add the sentiment strip from the paper pack, glitter all the leaves and flowers.

Instructions: Create a Gate Fold 5 x 7 card. To accomplish this, make 2 5 x 7 cards out of white cardstock, glue the 2 together making it a 15 x 7. Score at 2 1/2", turn and score the other side at 2 1/2", burnish with a bone folder, this makes the Gate Fold. Cover the 2 inside 2 1/2" folds and the middle with some of the Purr-fect Posies paper, cover the last 2 1/2" fold with a different color of the Purr-fect paper as shown. Cut the 4 small postage stamps from the paper collection, mat on white cardstock, cut out using a pair of postage stamp scissors and adhere to the back panel. Cut out 2 of the smaller tag pictures from the paper collection, mat on white card stock and add adhesive to half and adhere to both the front and back panel as shown. Make a pocket and adhere to the center of the card. Die cut 2 pre-printed tags using the Ticket and tags die, mat on white cardstock and place in the pocket. Cut out 2 of the corner pieces with the Arrows and Banners die, add to card as shown.
Choose a card front, mount on white cardstock, add adhesive to half and adhere to the center of the front fold.
Stamp the flowers on the Deluxe Flower Shaping paper with the Majestic Violet ink, color the center with the Buttercup and lightly color with the Majestic Violet. Cut out using the matching die and place in the mold. Stamp the leaves on the same paper with the Leaf Green ink, color in with the vivid Chartreuse ink, cut out with the coordinating die, ink edges with the leaf green and place in mold. Shape by running the mold through the die cutting machine. Adhere by putting 2 petals together making one flower. Adhere flowers and leaves to card front lower right hand corner. Add Prills and glitter to all the leaves and flowers.
Cut a strip of white cardstock 1 x 15", cover with a piece of the Purr-fect Posies paper 3/4 ", this makes the belly band. After gluing the band together add bow to finish.
