Altered Bottle with Roses

Hello and welcome to a Special Release Wednesday by Heartfelt Creations...
Today Heartfelt Creations is releasing something that every crafter needs who loves to create beautiful handmade flowers.
Have you guessed it yet???
Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper
I am so happy with this release....The design team members got to try their hands on this paper around 2 months back and I have been making flowers with it ever since. In fact the flowers in my previous posts are made with this paper only.
It is one of the best papers for handmade flowers that I have come across... For today's post I specifically choose to make Roses as I have heard from many crafters that they find it a little difficult to make. But creating these Roses is a breeze with this paper along with Classic Rose Cling Stamp Set, Die and 3D Rose Shaping Mold! And you can see the results below...
These papers are 12" x 12" and come in 25 sheets pack and 50 sheets pack
(Read till the end for full supply list and instructions for this altered bottle)

Cherry Blossom Retreat Pop-Up Shadow Box Card

Hello friends and welcome to Heartfelt inspiration post...

Today I have a card inspired by Jennifer McGuire  
She shared a card technique recently which adds a lot of depth to a card and I loved it...
Here is my take on that technique.
I have used 3D flowers and raised elements so it won't fit in a flat envelope but it will still fold flatter than the actual dimension...The gap between the front and back panel of the card is almost 1" and it stands on its own for displaying... The birdhouse inside appears to be floating midair thanks to the acetate piece (visible in last pic)
