Close Ups:

Those are my projects. Make sure to stop by Heartfelt Creations site to check out their awesome videos tutorials and inspirations every week. They really do have some beautiful products. I have to say just working on these two projects was a learning experience. I had to go get the C plate for my Cuttlebug because the dies are super cute and thin.  This was my first flower die as well. I like having the matching stamps. I also used some chalk as I saw in one of their videos.

Until next time ... Happy Scrappn!
