Welcome to this weeks post with Heartfelt Creations. 

I have made two projects this week. A card and some tags. On my first project I took strips of paper from the Butterfly Medley collection, and made my own designer paper, 

I hope you will try it out. It was a lot of fun to do. Stop by Heart Creations blog to see all of the amazing inspirations by the rest of the team.

Products Used:
Butterfly Medley Paper Collection
Dream in Beauty Cling Stamp Set
Raindrops on Roses Die
Memento Dye Ink Pad - Tuxedo Black
Art Institute Glue - Dries Clear
Metal Glue Tip - Art Institute
Stamp Mat Pad
Double Dots 100pc.

Project Instructions:

Other Products: Neenah White cardstock (CS), Green - brown cardstock, Spellbinders Grand Circles - Grand Scalloped Circles, RRR brown with gold edging, Wink of Stella clear, white gel pen.

Instructions: Pick random pieces of paper from the Butterfly Medley paper collection. Trim them to 1/2" by 12", then take a piece of CS any color and trim it to 6" by 6". Center the first strip on the top right corner down to the bottom left corner, then glue it down. This will insure that all of your strips of paper will be straight. Take the rest of the strips and glue them to the card also, until the CS is covered completely. Turn the CS over on the back and cut all of the strips flush with the CS. Stamp the Dream in Beauty butterfly and stamp it on white CS with black ink. Color it with Copic markers YG25, 21, G05, 07, N0, N2, and the colorless blender. Cut/emboss the image with the smallest Grand Circle. Cut/emboss the smallest, Grand Scalloped Circle with green CS. Glue them together, and add Double Dots to the back. Cut/emboss the Lattice Piece from the Raindrops on Roses Die, in white CS. Cut it in half and add it to the card. Add the image over the Lattice piece. Place small white dots on the butterflies with the gel pen. Brush Wink of Stella over the butterflies. Tie the ribbon in a double bow and glue it to the card.

I made some tags for my second project.
