A little about Heartfelt Creations:

Heartfelt Creations provides a unique line of artistic stamps, detailed dies and designer papers. Many of our stamps coordinate with our exclusive Spellbinders™ dies. The innovation of our stamps paired with matching dies offers a whole new dimension of possibilities and quickly adds eye-popping 3D depth to any project. Our designer papers are designed to coordinate with our product collections adding the perfect complement to any Heartfelt Creations stamp or die.

Be sure to stop by their blog and let them know how much you appreciate their stamps.

Okay folks, you have two week lefts to create a scene from "inside the garden".  We are looking for stamped or digi scenes that are finished projects (no ATC's or unmounted work).  Cute cards with a few added flowers will not be accepted - we need to see your scenic talents!

In the Garden - Week 2

Happy Sunday everyone!


The weather has finally turned here and the sun is shining, tempting me out to the garden.  There are weeds galore and my chives are going crazy!  I need to do some serious maintenance.


I have for you today our very first Guest Designer, Dora from Holland! Dora made two cards to wow us.  Her work is wonderful and she draws a lot of it herself.

My name is Dora Buist and I live in Holland(Netherlands).  I am married and have three childeren, they are 15, 12 and 10 years old.  We have a farm and I also work as a nurse at homecare.

I like creating scenes because they look a little like paintings.  You can see a story in a scene sometimes.  I find it so creative to use different stamps combining them to make a very nice picture.

I don't have so many scenic stamps so I sometimes draw my own image or background.

I made two cards, one with de dragonfly, is drawn by myself.  The second card with pheasant and wheel that is a stamp from Northwood stamps and the rest is drawn by myself.

Do check out Dora's wonderful blog this week and leave her a little love.

And now onto the "in the garden" creations from the design team....

July Challenge - In The Garden

This month our challenge is to create a scene from "inside the garden". 

When I was a child, my mother said that I would grab the salt shaker and go sit in the vegetable garden and eat tomatoes right off the vine.  So when I think of "inside the garden" I think of what a child sees down low - the plants, the fence, dirt, grass, spiders, a rabbit, and all my mums flowers.


I hope my little story gives you some ideas of what our theme, "inside the garden" might mean to you.  This is what our design team came up with for inspiration.


Anna-Karin - Layers of Ink

"Here's my first card for the garden theme. It was harder than I thought, I haven't ever done garden scenes before I think. For this one, I created my favorite type of garden, a pretty wild garden, where everything grows where it wants to. I added lots of flowers to the grass, which might have been seen as weed, but I like these types of flowers".


Anja - Stamping Anja



Anja created this lovely card with lots of flower pots and flowers for us to enjoy.




Nadia - Scrap Affair

Nadia's garden is just outside her home behind the picket fence. I couldn't help but notice all the FlowerSoft in the wheel barrow!




Brenda - Floral Fantasies

Brenda used stamps from our sponsor - Heartfelt Creations and made this amazing window easel card.

Nancy - Crafting Passions

When I look at my patio garden I see pots of flowers and greenery.  Soon they will be overflowing with mature flowers.
