Under the sea


Yay!! we have a new release at Heartfelt Creations! 
Check out the NEW Under the Sea collection HERE

I had fun making these Hibiscus flowers! 
I decided to make them double layered and removed 
the stamen from the bottom flower.

Did you notice I didn't use a sentiment? 
Sometimes it's fun to make a card with no sentiment,
they are so handy to have around and then
you can use them for any occasion and write inside your own words!
