Heartfelt Creations December Alumni Hop


Hi All.  This is the last Alumni Hop for Heartfelt Creations of 2018.  It's been an amazing year with these hops, and seeing all the beautiful cards and projects the Team has made.  That said, let's get on with this month's hop!

For my project today, I strictly used one of the beautiful pads of the in-house designer papers that HFC offers.  They really make it easy to make cards without any work.  How fun is that!  Sometimes easy is okay.

I used the Under the Sea Collection paper pad. While it looks like it is colored, that panel is one of many that are in the paper pad!  Just stunning.  [I only wish I could color like that!]  The sentiment is also included.  See what I meant by easy? Because the main panel was really large [6.25 x 6.25] I instantly thought of a front cover and made a small scratch paper book.  I cut down some copy paper to 6.25 x 6.25, and a back cover [just white cardstock], punched 3 holes with my Crop-a-dile, and added 3 small notebook rings.  This will work perfectly on my desk.

I do love the paper in this pad -- totally my colors :).


For more beautiful inspiration, below is the list of Designers.  Don't forget to leave a comment for the random drawn $25 gift certificate winner for your own Heartfelt Creations products.

This is so very pretty and as a coloring challenged person...I LOVE those paper pads.

Terry Law said...

That paper is lovely. Great idea!

Jessica Eiss said...

This is pretty, and I love the aqua/teal colors, myself. I love HFC, but don't have any of their paper pads. I love visiting their booth at the scrapbook expo too.

Unknown said...

What a beautiful cover for your scratch paper book! I have trouble with paper this pretty... I tend to save it as it's too pretty to part with. lol!

Arlene said...

You are right Vicki, the paper does make a beautiful card. Good work.

Lisa Elton said...

This is so pretty Vicki and made me think of my mom. Every time I make her pretty little note pads or post it note projects like this, she won't use them! She wants to keep them. Just think what I'll inherit one day LOL!

Helen said...
