Hats off!


For my card this week for Heartfelt Creations I was inspired
by London Fashion week! 

I just love hats, how I wish they would become popular again! 
Some of the vintage hats from the 1920's are amazing! 

Oh the colours of the Classic Rose Collection......
I had a hard time deciding what colour to make this! 
The papers are all so pretty! 
I am always drawn to purples they remind me of my Grandma,
She would have loved this! Infact she wold have had
me decorating a real hat for her with these!!!! Bess her.


Have you stopped by the Heartfelt Blog? 
Oh my there are some stunning projects! 
You can see them HERE

To make the card I used the following:
HCST1-401 Flower Shaping Kit
HCD1-7111 Classic Rose Vines Die
HCD1-7110 Classic Rose Die
HCPC-3753 Classic Rose Vines Cling Stamp
HCPC-3752 Classic Rose Cling Stamp
HCDP1-270 Classic Rose Paper Pad


Other Products Used : White card, glue, glitter glue, 3D foam pads, Peeled Paint and Dusty Cncord
Distress Inks, String pearl gems, Hat pins.

Watch this video HERE to see how to shape the Classic Rose flowers.

Using white card create a hat card using the template HERE
I enlarged the template to create a larger hat by printing it at a larger scale. 
Draw around the template on paper from the paper pad and adhere to the inner of the card.
Repeat for the front of the card. I used a piece where the base of the hat looked different
to the top. Adhere to the card front and ink the inner and front edges of the hat. Cut a strip
of the darker paper from the pad 1" x 4 1/4" and adhere to the card as the hat band with 3D foam.
Cut a strip of paper 7/16" x 4/1/4" and adhere to the top of the darker strip. Glitter the patterns
on the paper for the hat front and adhere pearl string along the hat band. Stamp, cut, colour and
shape the leaves and the flowers. Glitter the flower petals. Adhere the leaves and flowers to the card
and your project is complete.

Happy Crafting!
