Heartfelt Creations and Scor-Pal

I've got a special treat for you today. Scor-pal and Heartfelt Creations have teamed up to bring you a wonderful week of projects.  Be sure to check out the Scor-Pal Blog every day , and the Heartfelt Creations blog today, for all of the gorgeous creations. Sometimes a simple structure is best, if you want to add lots of beautiful embellishments.  That's why I decided to make a very simple basket, to really show off the gorgeous Heartfelt Creations products.


Take a 12 x 12 piece of cardstock, and score at 4" and 8".  Turn the paper to the right and score again at 4" and 8".  Cut the corner blocks away, leaving a cross shape. (Leave a 1/2" tab on both sides of the upper and lower center squares to adhere the sides of the basket together.)

 Apply Scor-tape to the tabs and assemble the basket.

 Cut a strip of paper for the handle, and decorate with Parisian Accents border die cuts. Also add ribbon to the middle of the handle. Attach handle to the inside of the basket with the tape. That's it for the basic structure.  Easy-peasy.

 Next add decorative paper panels to the inside and outside of the basket.  Die cut 4 sets of the Ornate Gateway dies, and adhere to each of the front panels. Stamp, cut and shape the Striped Sun Kissed Flowers.  Add to the top of the handle.  Add pearls to the center of the flowers and along the border of the handle. Take a bought oval tag, stamp the sentiment and heat emboss with powder.  Stamp the birdhouse over the sentiment.  Ink the edges, and glue a small flower to the lower corner.  Cut two of the Ornate gateway toppers, and add to the sides of the tag.  Finish with ribbon and twine to attach the tag to the basket.

Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

 

It's Wednesday - so another day of inspiration with Heartfelt Creations!  I stamped my flowers today using Ultra High Embossing Powders, which really gave them some great dimension.

Distress the edges of the patterned papers for your card layers, and then ink them with dark brown ink. Make two cuts with the dies from the Layered Scalloped Posy - lining them up next to each other to cut a circle and mounting circle.  Stamp the flowers onto vellum using a watermark ink and heat emboss with ultra high powder.  Cut with the matching die and assemble with pearls in the center.  Swipe some rust colored ink over the edges of the flowers, and wipe away excess with a paper towel.   Stamp the tag and fussy cut.  Stamp a sentiment and mount a portion of the stamp on the card as shown.  Finish assembling the card as shown.

Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

I was so thrilled when I saw the Balmy Breeze collection from Heartfelt Creations, because I completely adore anything to do with the beach.  From the imagery in this set, to the sun-faded colors of the papers - I was completely in love!  I used one of my favorite pictures of my nephew at the beach, for this layout.

Today's Beautiful Moments

 

Do you ever see a piece of paper, and just want to keep holding it, because it is so beautiful? That's how I feel about the WorldWin Petallics.  They are the most elegant papers ever!  The beautiful colors are so shimmery due to the mica-infused coating.  I wanted to create a card that really played up these characteristics, so I thought dry embossing would do the trick.

On this side view, you can see the shimmer a little better.  And look how gorgeous this paper accepts stamping and heat embossing. This  is a 5x 7" card - and the really great thing, is that WorldWin has matching envelopes in 5 different sizes in the Autumn Hay ( and  12 other Petallic colors).

Words or Whatever - WOW March Release!

Today marks the new release at Words or Whatever - WOW Chipboard. I have a layout to share with you that uses some of my favorite chippies - but I have to admit - these aren't from the new release.  My package with the new  goodies will arrive later, but I didn't want to miss out on the fun, so I just created a layout with some of the pieces already in my stash.

 

Doesn't this Bamboo Tree look amazing with the Graphic 45 Bird Song Paper?  It was like they were made for each other!  I colored the tree with Smooch Inks - such an easy way to add color and sparkle.

 

The title, Sisters & Friends, was colored in the same way.  

This photo just shows a little of the depth on this layout.  I've been making my own foam adhesives using craft foam, and running it through my Xyron Creatopia with permanent adhesive.  It is such an easy and inexpensive way to build up those layers.

Please do have a look at the Words or Whatever - Wow blog, so you can actually see the new release! There are so many fun designs this time and the rest of the design team has done a marvelous job! While you are there check out the past  design team inspiration.  Every week, one of the designers floods the blog with amazing projects, fantastic tutorials and so much chippie goodness, you really don't want to miss it.  And remember, we also have a monthly challenge.  This time, it's super-duper easy - Just make a layout and use a little Wow on it.  You have until March 15th to link up.  We hope you will play along with us.

Family Another Word for Love

Since it's Wednesday, that means I get to share another Heartfelt Creations Project with you!  Today I've got a layout that I made using a picture of my sister and sweet little nephew.  We took this at the local pumpkin patch this fall.

I love the detail that the matching stamps and dies give to these flowers.

The chipboard title (from Words or Whatever -Wow) was embossed using several colors of powder.

Add your photo over the burlap. Stamp and fussy cut the Weathered Fence and color with copics.  Layer this to the left of your picture.  Stamp the Vintage Floret flowers using the Dark Peony ink and cut with the coresponding die.  Mist with Glimmer Mist, shape and assemble.  Add foliage around the flowers and add to your layout.  Heat emboss the chipboard title and and to the layout to finish.





Scor-Pal and Hampton Art Wrap-Up

This time of the year, people are always on the look out for cute projects that are easily and inexpensively made, to had out as those last minute gifts.  This treat holder really fits the bill.  It was designed  to hold  Ghiradelli Chocolate Squares, but you could tweak the measurements to hold any treat that you would like to use. It's so quick to put this together using the Scor-Pal!  And since we are talking chocolate here - the sentiment stamp from Hampton Art was perfect!

Cut (2) red card stock pieces 7" x 6"for the top and bottom of the box. With the 6" side along the top fence, score at 2" and 4".  Turn a quarter turn, and score at 2" and 5".  Score the top and bottom corner pieces to add a 1/2" tab. e.g. For the upper left corner, score at 1 1/2", only down to the 2" mark.  Do this for all four corners and trim away the rest of the corner paper.

Cut decorative paper to cover the box top and bottom:

(5) 1 3/4" x 2 3/4"

(4) 1 3/4" x 1 3/4"

Ink the edges of the patterned papers using the Dark Moss ink.  Attach these papers to the box form before you assemble it - that way you can easily punch two holes into the top, to tie your ribbon through.  After the holes are punched, assemble the box top and bottom using Scor-tape.

Cut the transparency 9" x 10 1/4". Score at 1 7/8"; 4 3/4"; 6 5/8"; and 9 1/2".  Attach the tab using Scor-tape, and slide the sleeve into the box bottom. Add your treats, and top with the lid.

To decorate the box, stamp and emboss the Hampton Art sentiment, using gold embossing powder.  Cut using a die cut, and frame the cut with a nesting cut from red glitter paper. Add die cut holly leaves, and red Dew Drops for the holly berries.

Keep a few of these ready throughout the holidays!

Cream Layout

 
I've got a layout to share with you today that I challenged myself to go monochromatic.  I really had fun with thisusing texture to add interest. Scrap-Mart carries so many great lines, it's really easy to put together mixed media type projects.  Did you know that Scrap-Mart offers a 40% off coupon every month, that you can use on one item (off the MSRP).  The code for November is "STUFFING".  So, I'm sure if you head over to the store, you will see all kinds of wonderful goodies that you might want to use the discount on or maybe get an early start to your Christmas shopping!

1.        Roughen the edges of the base page using a distressing tool, then ink the edges with brown ink.  Cut an 11” square sheet of patterned paper, attach to the base and paint with gesso.   Allow to dry.

2.       Randomly stamp the Vintage Word Background using water mark ink, and emboss using Pepper colored powder. Glue a piece of lace down the left side of the page.  Dry emboss a panel of white cardstock and add over the lace. Add another light coat of gesso over this, and rub the gesso away from the embossed areas of text.  Stamp a few flower swirls from the Tattered Blossom Swirls. Layer a piece of embroidered organza or other sheer fabric, under the area where the photograph will go (extending beyond the space for the photo).

3.       Randomly spritz the entire page with the Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist.  Paint the chipboard pieces with Gesso, allow to dry, and ink the edges using the brown ink.  Apply to the page.

4.       Using the cream and black patterned paper from the paper pad, stamp and cut multiple flowers in all sizes from the Tattered Blossoms.  Shape the flowers, arrange them in stacks, but don’t glue them together yet.

5.       Heat Clear Ultra High embossing powder in a Melting Pot.  Using tweezers, dip each of the flowers into the molten powder – starting with the bottom flower of the stack.  Remove a flower, set it on a heat resistant pad, and do the same thing with the next flower in the group.  Take the second flower and place in the center of the first.  The embossing powder will “glue” the flowers together.  Continue doing this for each layer of the flower. Make 3 large flowers in the manner.  Use single layers of smaller flowers for fillers.

6.       Take the completed flower and slightly heat with a heat gun, and while it is hot, mist it with Tattered Angels Chalk mist.  Attach the flowers to the layout.  Add a pearl to the flower center.

Heartfelt Prayers

I really love the homespun feel of these papers from Farmhouse Paper company! I created the flowers using Spellbinders Rose Creations and Glimmer Mist.  The sentiment and the flourish at the bottom are from the JustRite Vintage Filagree Fancies (designed by Becca Feeken).  I also used the rose stamp from that set to make a watermarked image underneath the embossed sentiment.  It doesn't jump out at you, but adds another layer of interest.

I've got the details on how I created this layout, and all of my supplies listed below.  Thanks for stopping by!

1.        Take base page ( Corner blackberry) and water distress the edges.  After the page is completely dry, randomly swipe the edges using watermark ink, and sprinkle with ultra high gold embossing powder and heat set. Tuck gold crocheted lace  behind any tears along the edge.  Glue this entire sheet to a plain piece of cardstock.

2.       Cut patterned papers for each of the panels as shown.  Ink the edges using Leather ink, and then use a distress tool along the edges. Tuck a piece of crocheted lace under the long panel on the left side before gluing to the base.  Use dimensional foam to attach the other panels.

3.       Stamp the flower trio from the Tattered Blossoms Swirl set onto white cardstock, and fussy cut the image.  Color using Copic markers.

4.       Stamp 5 of the smallest Tattered Floral flowers, and 2 of the second smallest – using brown archival ink. Heatset the ink.  Using the matching die set, cut the flowers. Paint using Creative Inspirations Paint and allow to dry. Shape the flowers using the McGill tools and mat. Layer the flowers on the stamped base and add pearls to the centers.  Tuck chipboard swirls behind the flower cluster.  Attach above the photograph.

5.       Die cut words from the Spellbinders Girly Grunge Labels and attach directly to the photograph.

6.       Stamp, cut and color multiples of all 5 sizes of the Tattered Blossoms as above.  Shape and layer the petals as shown to create varying blossoms.

7.       Build the flower cluster on the page, starting with a die cut flourish from the Decorative Dutch Iris set.  Center your largest flowers in the center of the cluster, adjacent to the photograph.  Make sure some of the cluster touches the photo to help maintain a nice balance.  Build the cluster up by  adding the smaller flowers to the outer edges. Add glass glitter to some of the flower centers, pearls to others.

8.       Stamp the Maple leaf from the Open Falling Leaves set using watermark ink. Heat emboss using the Ultra High Gold embossing powder and cut using the matching die.  Shape the leaves and nestle the around the flowers.  Add a small bow made with the gold crocheted ribbon amongst the flower cluster.

9.         Color the chipboard letters using embossing powders and add to the upper right corner of the layout.
