I want to let you know that I will not be available to answer emails for a little while. My daughter is having major surgery early this morning. When she comes home from the hospital she will be staying at our home because she will not be allowed to get out of bed for two weeks. As I have time, I will try to create some new cards and will answer your questions.
I have been so happy that so many of you have loved the Build A Flower tutorials and I will continue showing you how top create other flowers just as soon as I have more time. Thank you for all the comments. I love hearing from you - it lets me know you are using the tutorials. I have had several requests to do a tutorial on how to create a pansy, so that will probably be next.
The card above is a card I designed using the new Heartfelt Creations "Sweet Serenity" collection. You can purchase this collection from Joan's Gardens.
For a chance to win a $25 gift certificate from Heartfelt Creations, be sure to comment on the cards in the Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop which is posted below this post.
I have designed a card for the new challenge at Joan's Gardens tomorrow, so be sure to stop by to see the fun challenge. You are all creating amazing cards for our challenges, and Joan and I love seeing all your creative work.
