July's Challenge: "To Die For"

Hello fellow crafters!!

Cathi here to host this month's challenge! This month we are sponsored by the AMAZING company

  Heartfelt Creations

They produce gorgeous papers, stamps and dies and our challenge this month is inspired by them, the 


You can create layouts, cards, art journals, tags or even altered projects, as long as they contain dies. Now since everyone might not have a die cutting machine, purchased die cuts are great to use too...I seem to always have some of these in my stash and I bet you probably have some too!!


Here is my layout I did this month for the die cut challenge. The beautiful paper collection I used is the Arianna Blooms papers. The dies are the gorgeous flourishes and bleeding hearts that were both stamped and die cut using gorgeous Heartfelt Creations products


Here is a close up of the beautiful bleeding heart stamps from the Romantique Garden collection. The stamps are part of the Heartthrob Cling Stamp Set. I stamped them on some of the Arianna Blooms paper and inked them using Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet Distress Ink to make the darker sections of the bleeding heart.



The  Romantique Garden die set that I used cut out the beautiful bleeding heart stamps perfectly and also included the gorgeous flourish stems I used.  I used some tag cut outs and a title from the Arianna Blooms papers and fussy cut some butterflies. I also added some Shimmerz Texturez masked in the background using a Prima wall mask and splattered some green ink as well, finally adding some twine for an extra fun detail!

We'd love to see what you will come up with for this month's challenge!!!
