Can you tell by my project how much I loved the stamps and the paper??? It's pretty apparent isn't it.  I can't tell you how much fun I had making this album and album holder.  I have become quite addicted to shopping the thrift stores in my area for unique objects to transform into new and useful things.  This window box is one of them.

Here is the album cover for my mini album.  It is made with envelopes and a chipboard cover and back.  I have been watching some videos on how to make albums with lots of embellishments and not have them end up looking like   V  ......lol    So I think I have it down and am good to go.

All the envelope have purple card stock inserts for pictures.  Plus there is a pocket on each of that side of the album that holds tags from the paper collection. 

I had so much fun coordination previous stamp releases with this paper.  Notice the birdhouse and the birds and butterflies. 

This picture shows you the envelope tags.  The flowers were so fun to make.  I used smooch glitz crystal on them for sparkle.  Would you believe I used a whole bottle plus a whole bottle of Crystal Stickles on this project...Yes I do love my bling!

This show you how I used some of the stamps that come in the set in the album

Hope you enjoyed viewing this project.  It took me about three weeks in-between my other Design Team Commitments to complete.  I enjoyed this so much and am finding myself wanting to take my art in a different direction.  I picked up something today that I am just itching to try.  Maybe next week it will be revealed-it depends if what I designed in my head really works out-that's the fun in creative inspiration!!!

Heartfelt Creations Pumpkin Harvest Altered Box

Hello friends and bloggers.  Today I have a project from the Classic Edition Collection for Heartfelt Creations.  It's a box that has 8 gift cards and envelopes inside.  What a fun gift idea!

I had so much fun creating this.  I purchased this box from Michael's and it was all of 80 cents or something.  I always go when they have those 20-25% off everything in the store coupons including sales items......can you tell I read those coupons....lol  I had it sitting on my desk for a while and thought I would make this to hold those really pretty tags that come with Heartfelt Creations Paper that matches this stamp set.  I painted the box with paint-let it dry then covered it with the paper.

The flowers were created to match the images in the paper collection.

This is the inside of the box with the little gift cards and envelopes I created.  Below are the products I used.  Be sure to check out the Heartfelt Creations Blog for the full directions with measurements on how I created this and to see the other design teams fabulous creations.

Heartfelt Creations File Folder Mini Album

.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!  Welcome to my blog.  It's a Heartfelt Creations project today using their beautiful Frost Blanket Paper, Stamps, and Dies.  This is called a File Folder Mini Album.  They are very easy to make and I know you would have fun putting one together just like I did.  At the top you can see the mini album front.  I have inserted a picture that shows you how it opens to give you an idea all the little pockets you can create.

 

This is the back of the mini album open.  See how much fun it is.  I used stickles to trace around all the pretty images in the paper and added lots of Martha Stewart Snowflakes.  I made the snowflakes as pull tabs for all the tags.

This is the album front folded and ready to be sent in an envelope to a treasured love one filled with pictures of you and your family.  Notice the pretty tags that are from the Frosty Paper Collection.

This is a side that has the image from the Paper Collection as the Design.

Greetings bloggers! This month we are delighted to release our very first line of Heartfelt Creations paper! Check out the beautiful patterns, luscious colors, and organic textures. Some come with our stamp images in them; others are abstract. This will add some fun and variety to your creations!

The Classic Edition Collection stamp sets and die release is gearing towards the fall season and colder days.

Our card samples will give you many ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Leave a comment on the HC blog by July 24th and you will be eligible to win the entire release.

 

With this new stamp release this card was created that I like to call Harvest Day on the Farm.  Believe it or not this card wouldn't cost the normal $2 to send at the post office for me.  It is pretty flat but loaded with detail with the pumpkins and fence and other die cuts.  You will love this truck-the door is cut so you can put a cute little dog inside.  I love that design feature-it makes me smile!  This was so much fun to make.

Heartfelt Creations Brookside Manner

Oops you know I was supposed to have this posted yesterday and guess what happened?  With July 4th falling in the middle of the week-I had a house full of company from about 7p.m. on July 3rd until after 11 p.m last night.  Not only that, we overslept this morning and my DH was late for work but I made it by 1 minute...lol   Everyone I talked to today had the same problem.   I cooked like there was no tomorrow.  We had Eggs Benedict for Breakfast, I baked fresh blueberry muffins, blueberry crisp, and blueberry bars.  I made macaroni salad, barbequed chicken breast, baked sweet potatoes, coleslaw, and I can't remember what else.  I didn't have much left over...lol  Hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July with your family.
