Precious Memories

Welcome to my Heartfelt Creations Wednesday, hope everyone is having a good week so far, been pretty busy here with the yearbook for Maria's school and DT deadlines, not to mention everyday stuff.  Today I have a card using lots of gorgeous product from the one and only Heartfelt Creations, I got to say, I love their product and every release they just keep getting better and better.  I used color challenge #19 from CR84FN but didn't get the card done before the challenge closed.  I love this flowers from HFC, this is the "Flora Grande" set and these stamps coordinate with the Spellbinders Blossom Three dies.  As a final touch I added some adhesive pearls from Want2Scrap, I thought they were just the perfect touch.  Thank you so much for stopping by and make sure to swing by the Heartfelt Creations' Blog so you can see all the gorgeous creations the rest of the design team has put together.
