New Blazing Poppy Collection from Heartfelt Creations

Has the humdrum of the daily grind sapped your energy and stunted your creative mojo?  Rejuvenate your creativity with the saturated colors and resplendent artwork of the Blazing Poppies Collection of stamps, dies and designer papers from Heartfelt Creations.  Escape to verdant fields where dancing poppies sway like ballerinas wearing dramatic hues of blush, coral, peach, scarlet and ebony.  Let this glorious canvas of flowing script, heirloom lace, ornate flourishes, flower laden arbors, bold stripes and soft neutral backgrounds enliven your senses and awaken your inner Van Gogh.  The Blazing Poppy stamp and die allows you to fashion bold, life-like poppies in every size and color.  You'll design museum worthy backgrounds, card focals, layouts and home décor with the sumptuous stamps and paper collection.  Create your own masterpiece, and spark your imagination with the amazing artistry and uncommon brilliance of Blazing Poppies.

I'm having so much fun working with this collection, from the very beginning when I started designing the paper I loved working with these gorgeous images.  For my project this week I have made a card with a watercolored image. 
I stamped the image on watercolor paper with desert sand Memento ink and colored with Kuretake watercolors.
Here is a closeup of the flowers I made with the stamps and coordinating dies.
Make sure you visit the HC Blog for lots of gorgeous inspiration featuring this collection.
Thank you for your visit.
