Peony Easel Calendar

Happy Release Day!
Yes, not only is it Inspiration Wednesday, but also a very special release day on the Heartfelt Creations Blog!  Today is the release day of the Leafy Accents Collection, complete with a wonderful Shaping Mold!


I made my mom one of these calendars for Mother's Day and thought it would be fun to create another to show off the new Leafy Accents Cling Stamps, Dies, and Shaping Mold.


For details on creating the easel, check out this Splitcoaststampers tutorial.  There are free printable calendars online, if you need a different year.


The flowers were made with the Large and Small Sweet Peony, the large were stamped and sponged in Archival Tea Rose and the small in Lulu Lavender, and then cut out with the corresponding dies.  Bead stamens and glitter were added to all of the flowers.
To see how to shape the peony, watch the video at https://youtu.be/L9_MLkvpGPQ.



The Leafy Accents were stamped and sponged in Bamboo Leaves and sculpted with the Leafy Accents Shaping Mold. 


A sentiment from the Sweet Peony Paper Collection was distressed and added with foam tape.

Peony Gift Box

Hi Friends!
It's time once again for my favorite time of the week, inspiration Wednesday at the Heartfelt Creations Blog, feel free to come visit and be truly inspired!


For my project this week, I created a gift box covered in designer paper from the Sweet Peony Paper Collection.  I used a pre-made chipboard box and added Mod Podge over the paper to give it more strength.


The peony and bud were made with the Large Sweet Peony Stamps and Dies.  To see how to shape the peony, watch the video at https://youtu.be/L9_MLkvpGPQ.  Add bead stamens to the center of the large peony.  The wildflowers were made with the Backyard Blossoms stamps and dies, the leaf from the Classic Leaf stamps and dies, and the banner was made with the Banners of Love stamps and dies. 


Finish flowers with lots of glitter.

Bumble Bee Bouquet

Happy Wednesday!
It's that day of the week where we celebrate inspiration and release day on the Heartfelt Creation Blog! Please come on over and visit.


I started my card with the beautiful new designer paper from the Heartfelt Creations Sweet as Honey Paper Collection.  I added a bouquet of flowers made with the Delightful Daisy, Backyard Blossoms, Lush Lilac, Wildwood Florals (leaves), Small Sweet Peony (leaves) stamps and dies and added stamens, prills, and glitter.


The Regal Borders and Pockets Die was used on both sides of the main panel and the center oval was raised with foam tape with a circle doily from the Butterfly Kisses Decorative Die was added behind.  Bees from the Sweet as Honey set were stamped, sponged and cut out with the corresponding dies.  Glitter glue was added to the wings for sparkle and they wer placed in the bouquet and around the sentiment, which is also from the paper collection.


Finally, a seam binding bow was added to tie the bouquet together.

For my project today, I created a 81/2 x 51/2 card.  For the background, I used the Backyard Blossoms Paper Collection, for the side panels, I cut out two of the Sweetheart Border Die.  The Ornate Pocket and Border Die was used for the bottom, it was sponged with glue and covered with glitter.  


The peonies were created with the Large and Small Sweet Peony stamps and dies. For more tips on creating with the Sweet Peony collection, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/L9_MLkvpGPQ.  For more tips on creating with the flower shaping molds, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/FSdPL7nXvQE.  To see how to shape the peony, watch the video at https://youtu.be/L9_MLkvpGPQ.  The wildflowers were stamped and sponged with Backyard Blossoms, Blossoming Coneflower, Garden’s Edge, Rain Boots & Blossoms (leaves), and Wildwood Florals (leaves) Cling Stamps and cut out with corresponding dies.


Lots of Crystal Clear Glitter was added to all of the flowers!
