Heartfelt Creations - You Inspire Me Card

Hello Friends,
Do you have an unsung hero in your life?  Your champion may never have a medal pinned to his or her chest, but you can demonstrate your gratitude with the Everyday Heroes Collection from Heartfelt Creations.  These epic stamps, dies and papers salute the extraordinary "ordinary people" who inspire us as they live their daily lives with honor and integrity. Greys, teals, khakis, creams and browns have been blended with distressed newsprint, vintage maps, globes, sailing ships, timepieces, combat boots, stripes, dots and flourishes to create a rugged, paper collection that is timeless in its appeal.  Six deeply etched cling stamp sets featuring detailed collages, inspiring sentiments and unique circular elements mesh perfectly with the paper collection and matching set of dies.  Let's sing the praises of the unsung heroes in our lives with the Everyday Heroes Collection from Heartfelt Creations!

  11. WOW Marisa! What a beautiful card. I love how you incorporated all the flowers in the design and you have such an ability to coordinate colors. You are so talented. I'm hoping that the longer I follow your work maybe some of that talent will rub off on me. LOL. Seriously though, Gorgeous job. I love it. Blessings and Hugs.
