wednesday...Heartfelt Creations November New Release

Welcome everyone! Today is the second Wednesday of the month which means that we have a brand new Heartfelt Creations Release!

There’s nothing better than sharing time with your four legged fur baby, soaking in the adoration found in their bright eyes, the love displayed through their wagging tails and those endless supplies of slobbery kisses! Whether you’re enjoying the antics of a young energy filled and mischievous puppy, or the relaxed and laid back company of an older furry friend, you are sure to fall in love with the new Pampered Pooch Collection by Heartfelt Creations! This newest paper collection is filled with adorable fun loving illustrations of heartwarming pooches, their favorite treats, and pretty floral touches all set against beautiful shades of denim blues, grassy greens, chocolate browns and crisp creams. The four captivating cling stamp sets include charming illustrations of man’s best friends at play, sitting pretty and even causing just a slight paw-full of trouble. These adorable images have been coupled with a multitude of sentiments perfect for so many different occasions and are ideal for the young and the young at heart! Cute dimensional pooch themed embellishments such as doggie bone shaped treats, paw prints, collars and of course a collection of fun loving furry friends themselves are easy to achieve when pairing the coordinating cling stamps and die combinations. So relax, get creative and celebrate great memories of canine friends both past and present, create a little something special for that puppy adoring friend who’s going through a “ruff” time, or simply lay back and bask in the joy of life as our wet nosed, fur covered friends do as we share with you the Pampered Pooch Collection…drool not included!

Here is the step by step write-up for this project:
Distress a 12"x12" sheet of paper from the Pampered Pooch Paper Collection with the Tim Holtz Paper Distressor and with water, and ink the edges with Vintage Photo distress ink. Die cut a few borders from the Border Essentials Die and tuck in random spots around the edges of the page. Adhere the pattern paper onto a brown cardstock. Trim a coordinating piece of pattern paper from the same collection to 8"x7" and another one to 1.5"x7". Distress both of these papers and ink with distress ink. Layer them in the center of the page. Rip a piece of cardboard approximately to 6"x6.5", ink the edges and adhere over the center of the page. Mat your two 3"x4" pictures over this layer. Stamp and die cut using the coordinating die the large dog collar from the Pampered Pooch Pals Cling Stamp Set. Stamp your title on it and wrinkle and ink it to make it look old and worn. Stamp the mom and puppy image as well as the puppy border from the same set. Color and die cut using their coordinating dies. Add to layout as shown. Stamp different sentiments on a white piece of cardstock in alternating blue/brown color ink. Trim and add to page on the  right side of the photos. Die cut a few different size stars from blue cardstock and stamp the large paw print on the 2 smaller ones. Hand-stitch around the edges of the stars with white floss and adhere to layout. Finally, stamp the "You are Pawfect" sentiment inside a bone stamped image on brown cardstock and die cut it with it's coordinating die. Adhere over large star on left side of photos. Add 3-D Crystal Lacquer over the large paw print stamped images and sentiment title for a shiny finish.
