Heartfelt Creations - Debuting the Purr-fect Posies Collection

Hi and welcome!

Today we're debuting the adorable Purr-Feat Posies Collection!

Irresistibly charming and oh so amusing, watching the carefree, fun filled antics of playful kittens bounding through the summer flowers beds, or hiding behind large leafy foliage, ready to pounce on whatever comes their way, provides endless hours of entertainment and can quickly turn one’s frown upside down! Warm snuggles with a furry friend, whisker filled kisses, the soft sound of purring, and a gently twitching tail are always welcome affections and never fail to cheer up the soul. Whether your favorite kitty is timid, or filled with sass from the tip of their nose to the tip of their tail, we invite you to celebrate your “purr-fect” fur babies along with us with the new Purr-fect Posies Collection from Heartfelt Creations! Leap into an elegant paper collection featuring soft hues of baby blanket blues, subdued catnip greens, squeaky toy pinks, and soothing lilacs, all scattered with adorable illustrations of kittens at play, pretty posies and beautiful garden scenes. Littered with enchanting premade card panels, this “catty” paper collection makes assembling and gifting special handmade greeting cards effortless, while charming scrapbook pages allow for creating fun and entertaining layouts showcasing those treasured photos of your favorite feline! Three cute and captivating cling stamp sets along with coordinating dies, feature finely illustrated images of loveable kittens at play, and are “purr-fect” for creating furry, fun filled scenes on all of your paper crafting creations, while a “purr-fectly” charming floral cling stamp set and coordinating die, lend themselves to assembling pretty, whimsical dimensional posies “purr-fect” for accenting your summer themed paper craft creations! So, whether you’re an avid card maker who’s crazy about kitties, enjoy documenting your favorite furry friend through scrapbooking, or love creating memory keeping albums for family and friends, we’re sure you’ll find this collection “the cats’ meow” for all occasions…and pure “purr-fection” for brightening the days of both the young and the young at heart!

Here's the card I created for the debut.

Stamp the Purr-fect Posies on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper twice using Majestic Violet ink, color with the same ink, diecut using the coordinating die, add more ink to the edges and shape using the Purr-fect Posies Shaping Mold.
