It's Heartfelt Creations time again.

This week I have a cute little off the page project up on the Heartfelt Creations blog. I found this giant wooden peg in the local Lifeline store for 50c, and figured I could certainly try to make something a little more interesting from it.

After applying loads of Gesso, I turned it upside down as a little stand alone photo stand. The photo is on a chipboard background and can be swapped out at any time.

This is with the photo board clipped into the top...

...and this is with the peg on its own.

Al always a close up of the decorative front. 

 ...and from the side.


As usual you can find all the instructions for creating this project over on the Heartfelt Creations blog. While you are there, be sure to check out lots of other projects from the other designers. Also, you can see a sneak peek of the next new release: Celebrate the Journey, you are going to love the die that comes with this one...super clever, plus there is a new technique video from Emma Lou.

Brand new DT reveal.

 A little while ago, I was invited to be part of the Design Team for Memory Maze, which is an Australian chipboard company. They have so many amazing designs, and I really like being able to support a local company.

Most of you here in Australia, probably already have some in your stash, and if you don't go and check out the store now, and be sure to ask your local to get some in. Alternatively, if you see something you like, let me know as Mum's shop already has a huge range, and can get anything else in you like.

This past week, I shared my first set of projects on the Memory Maze blog.

First up in a layout based on our monthly theme of circuses and carnivals. I used my brand new Gelatos to colour the large chipboard frame. I have used lots of fun papers and embellishments from the Ruby Rock It Carnival King collection.


Next up in an off the page layout using this amazing butterfly mesh piece. I really love the way this turned out. Check out all the cute little flowers, which are also available at Memory Maze. 



 Lastly is a shadow box beyond the page. The carousel horse is so sweet. Papers used here are Carnival Queen from Ruby Rock-It.



I had lots of fun making these. Be sure to check out the blog for more details on the products and to see what the rest of the team has been up to.

Heartfelt Creations share

This week I have a card to share using the new Once upon a time collection from Heartfelt Creations. This is a fun time themed layout with a really pretty delicate clock face die to match, and hey look, in a rarity for me, I haven't used any cards for this card, and I think it is still just as pretty.



As always, be sure to check out the blog for loads of amazing projects from all the team. You can find it here.

NEW Once Upon A Time Heartfelt Creations reveal

This week Heartfelt Creations have released another amazing paper collection. This is a clocks themed collection, and is very pretty. Here's a layout I have created using this collection. Really love how this one turned out. The delicate doily die from the Raindrops on Roses die co-ordinates beautifully as does the Majestic morning blooms die.

 I really love the ornate clock face die, so pretty.

Al always you can get all the instructions for this layout as well as heaps of inspiration from the rest of the team here.

You can also check us out on Facebook and Pinterest.

Heartfelt Creations time again.

This week on the Heartfelt Creations blog I have an altered timber frame to share. Cards are nice for birthdays, but get out away soon after the big day, so I thought I would make something that could a more permanent display. I've used more beautiful Raindrops on Roses products on this one.


As always you can get the full instructions on how to make this on the Heartfelt Creations blog here. While you are there, you can also get a peek at the new collection for March called Once Upon a Time. You should also check out the Heartfelt Creations boards on Pinterest if you haven't already.
