DEBUTING THE WILD ASTERS COLLECTION FROM HEARTFELT CREATIONS

Warm summer breezes have begun to cool, and daylight hours have started to shorten…tall grasses rustle in the wind preparing to make their way to seed, and leaves slowly begin their tumble to the ground to insulate the earth for the cooler upcoming season. As summer begins to fade, and the bright hues of heat loving flora's dim, it is then that the graceful aster takes the limelight and becomes the crowning glory of the autumn season, lending it one last burst of color with their blends of pretty purples, pleasing pinks, and blazing blues! Join us as we bid summer farewell and celebrate the arrival of the autumn season with the Wild Aster Collection from Heartfelt Creations! Take a walk among the last perennial wildflowers of the waning summer season as you delve into a paper collection draped in light and airy asters hued in vibrant fuchsias and pretty purples, all accented with glorious greens, precious pinks and tranquil creams. Enjoy alluring backgrounds filled with dainty lace like accents, grand vintage style stripes, and beautiful brocades, all ready to set the stage for captivating aster arrangements! A lovely assembling of cling stamp sets filled with pleasing aster illustrations unite to create pretty wildflower sprays and elegant bouquets, while a stunning collection of beautifully illustrated aster petal images, when paired with the corresponding dies, join together harmoniously to create light, airy, dimensional aster flowers perfect for creating elegant autumn inspired floral clusters! So, grab your sweater and join us for one last walk through the garden as we take in the simplicity and beauty of the glorious wild aster!

Instructions: Cut a piece of the Wild Aster paper 4 3/4" x 6 3/4 “, ink the edges with the Deep Purple ink and adhere to a white 5 x 7”card  base.
Using the Wild Aster Spray Stamp set, stamp along the left side and bottom of the card. Glitter the swirls and set aside to dry.
Stamp the flowers on the Deluxe Flower Shaping paper in the Deep Purple ink, color the center with the Butter cup and lightly color the rest with the Majestic Violet. Cut out using the coordinating die and place in the Floral Basics Shaping Mold. Run through the machine, for the larger flowers put 5 together making one Aster, for the smaller ones put 3 together. Use the Golf Tool and make a hole in the center of the flowers to add the stamens.
Using the Deluxe Flower Shaping paper stamp the leaves in Olive color with the Vivid Chartreuse, cut out with the matching die, ink the edges with Leaf Green. Use the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit and shape the leaves.  
Adhere the leaves and flowers on the card as shown. Stamp the sentiment, cut out using the Simply Classic Die, ink the edges with the Deep Purple, add small foam dots to the back and adhere to the card.
