I am just loving this new release ! 

The flowers are gorgeous!

So...... did my American friends shop till you dropped yesterday??
I loved Black Friday when I lived in the USA! 

We shopped and then went for breakfast and then went home to hide

our goodies from my daughter as they were invariably

her Christmas presents !!! hehe

To make this card I used the following:

HCPC3641 Heartthrob PreCut set

Other Products Used : White card, Glitter glue, 3D foam pads, Alcohol markers,

pearl gems, Spellbinders Mystical Embrace and Floral Oval dies, faded jeans

distress ink, black ink.

Cut two die cuts from the Mystical Embrace die and adhere together along the left 

edge to form a card. Cut a card front from the paper pad and cut in half. Adhere 

each half to the edge of the centre rectangle of the card, there will be a gap but 

it will be covered. Stamp the water image in blue ink and die cut using the large

die from the Floral oval set. Stamp and die cut the swans, add shading with a light

grey pen and glitter glue. Ink the edge of the oval and adhere to the card and adhere 

the swans to the card also using 3D foam pads. Die cut both flower fronds with

paper from the pad. Stamp, cut and colour the flowers and adhere to the fronds.

Adhere the flowers to the card and your project is complete.

So I made this box for a change in shape .....

Of course I used Heartfelt Creations papers, stamps and dies !!

The papers are from the Festive Christmas paper pad.
