DOUBLE POSTING FOR THE NEW HEARTFELT CREATIONS NEW RELEASE !

Hi, I invite you today to new this wonderful new collection.
"CLASSIC ROSE"
Beautiful in color, exquisite in fragrance, and ever so dignified, the rose is one of the most coveted flowers found in chic bouquets, or carefully tended flower gardens.  Breathtaking in bud form, as a blossom gently opening, or in full bloom, it is a flower that calls attention to itself and beckons you to pause and quietly reflect upon its elegance.  Heartfelt Creations invites you to stop, fall quiet and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the new Classic Rose Collection!  Filled with delicate illustrations of roses ranging from buds, to full blossoms, rose wreaths and flower filled vines, the three cling stamp sets and coordinating dies included in this assembling will have you building gorgeous rose gardens filled with varying sizes of dimensional flowers as realistic as those found in nature themselves.  The captivating decorative paper collection will whisk you away to perfectly manicured rose filled grounds, serene meadows where brooks babble and wild roses hold their heads high, and alluring views from charming old world buildings clad in weathered brick and vining florals.  The handsome color palette of regal purples, deep brick like reds, rich corals and leafy greens filled with delicate swirls, stunning brickwork and floral patterns, along with tender handwritten script are among just a few of the magnificent elements found within this graceful paper assembling. So join us as we slow down, enjoy the view and take some time to linger and smell the roses.      

Using this to die for collection, I made a bracelet/corsage.
It was such fun to make. The roses can be coloured to what ever will match the combination you will be wearing. It can also be used to decorate a bottle of delicious wine given as a gift.

Note: All the stamping is done with the gold embossing powder. All the gluing is done with the hot glue gun. All the leaf vines are double layered adhere together before placing on the bracelet; this gives a light look and also strengthens the die cut. To begin, make the roses, stamp, die cut and shape 3 large, 4 med and 6 buds. Wrap the bracelet twice with the black ribbon so you have a good base to work with. Secure the join with glue. Where the join is, this is your starting point for the corsage.  First place a leaf vine then the buds. Arrange the roses and leaves as you go. Making sure it all fits neatly and tightly clustered along the bracelet. Ending of course with a few buds with a trail of vine leaves.

To tidy the back of the work and to make a nice finish, make a looped ribbon bow. Glue in place behind the leaves and roses. Glue down any lose swirl, leaves and ribbon loops where needed.


Tip: This bracelet can also be used to decorate a wine or perfume bottle as a gift.

Well if winter has not hit you yet...lets hope later when it does you can make your own  Mr frosty and throw a few snow balls your self. A few rounds of ice skating would not go amiss...it's on my list. I am sure hoping for snow this winter, we did not get it last year....we got the rain and cold. You have gathered I love the snow. You have to understand in New Zealand where I grew up we did not get the snow and here in Holland we don't get snowed in. 
If you only look on the up side and turn back the clock so you don't have a care in the world...yes it can be a lot of fun playing in the snow.
