Today I'm thrilled to share a layout I created for Heartfelt Creations and I've fallen in love with this project. I really love the way my handmade flowers blended with the fussy cut matching paper. What a great clustering it made. Please see below for a complete recipe and instructions.

Project Instructions:
Wet edges of designer paper with water and distress edges, back with darker color designer paper. Fussy cut flower banner from designer paper and put aside for later. Cut four corner dies backed up together creating a doily. Glue to layout base with dries clear glue. Stamp Love sentiment in top right corner of the base layout. Glue picture down with foam tape and edge the bottom of the picture with the fussy cut banner/border mounted on high foam tape. Stamp, emboss and cut Sun Kissed Fleur. Ink from center of flower outward lightening the ink to the edges for a variegated color. Add Gala Glitz to the center of each of the flowers. Curl flower petals with tweezers. Create 12 varying sizes of flowers as just described. Stamp aster leaf and cut, once cut ink edges with darker green ink and curl edges of leaves. Arrange as shown throughout the cluster of flowers. Fussy cut flower label from paper and add rub on numbers/year. Attach with foam tape to complete the layout.
