New Everyday Heroes Collection from Heartfelt Creations

Who inspires you and what is the best way to celebrate them? Whether it’s your favorite author, a good friend, a celebrated artist or chef, a family member in the military or yourself...the Everyday Heroes Collection from Heartfelt Creations commemorates the important ones and moments.  Cool blue hues, weathered sailboats and bold typography are a commemoration to loved ones and creativity.
Sail the uncharted creative oceans of the Everyday Heroes Collection.

I have created an accordion card featuring this collection.  This is the front panel or front of the card.
And here are the three inside panels.
Thank you for your visit, make sure you visit the HC Blog for all the beautiful inspiration from our design team.

  4. Hi Angelica,
    I have never posted a message on your blog before but I saw this mini photo book on the Heartfelt Creations blog today and was Amazed. I love how you combined the All Geared up collection with this one. This card is so creative and artistic. I love the tie / lacing technique on the front. Fabulous job! Kudos.
    Blessings and Hugs,
