Heartfelt Creations - Debuting the Floral Basket Collection

 Hi and welcome!

Today we're debuting the beautiful Floral Basket Collection!

These beautiful baskets remind me of the elegant garden parties of yesteryear.

I filled my first basket with tiny, colorful roses. 

Instructions: Card size is 5 1/2 x 7 1/2”. Score and fold 11 x 7 1/2” cream metallic cardstock at 5 1/2” to create card base. Cut Luxe Gold cardstock 2x to 5 3/8 x 7 3/8” Cut Floral Basket Paper Collection sheet 7B 2x to 5 1/4 x 7 1/4”. Adhere the designer paper to the Luxe Gold cardstock using dries clear adhesive and then adhere to the card front and to the inside of the card. Stamp the sentiment ‘Right next door or miles apart, friends are always close in Heart’ from the Friendship Sentiment Cling Stamp set on cream metallic cardstock using Vibrant Fuchsia ink. Diecut using the Rectangle Filigree Frame Die and adhere to the inside of the card.

Stamp the basket, handle and bow from the Wicker Basket Cling stamp set, the ‘thinking of you’ sentiment from the Elegant Rose Sentiments Cling Stamp Set and the leaves from the Holly Berry Cling Stamp set on cream metallic cardstock using VersaMark, cover with Aged Ivory Embossing Powder and heat set using the Heat It Tool. Diecut with the coordinating dies along with mat layers x4 for the ‘Thinking of You’ sentiment and the basket. Adhere the basket and sentiment layers together with the stamped ones on top. 

Stamp the blooms from the Basket Blooms Cling Stamp Set on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Archival Olive ink, color using Leaf Green ink and the Olive ink. Diecut using the coordinating die and diecut x4 from the Deluxe Flower Shaping paper. Adhere the layers together with the stamped image on top to get a thick diecut and adhere to the top of the basket. Adhere the handle to the basket and adhere the sentiment to the top center of the card front.

Stamp the smallest petal of the Classic Rose Cling Stamp set on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Archival Vibrant Fuchsia, Buttercup and Forget-me-Not inks and color with the same inks. Diecut using the coordinating die and shape using the Groove Golf Tools - Medium and Small. You will need two petals for each flower. 

Stamp two of the leaves from the Cottage Tree ‘Scapes Cling Stamp Set 3x each on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Archival Olive ink, color using the Leaf Green ink, diecut and lightly shape using the Deluxe Flower Shaping kit. 

Adhere the basket to the card front as shown using dries clear adhesive and adhere the leaves, the baby roses and the Holly Berry leaves to the Basket Blooms using hot glue. Adhere the bow to the flowers with a couple of flowers on top to make it appear to be inside the bouquet. 

Randomly sponge the flowers and leaves, all the elements and the card front with dries clear adhesive and sprinkle with Rajni Chawla’s Crystal Clear glitter to add some sparkle.
