Heartfelt Golden Fuchsias

Happy Heartfelt Wednesday everyone! I you had a great Memorial weekend with family and friends! I had two days of not getting up to an alarm clock; that was such a treat. My inspiration for the week, using the Cascading Fuchsia Collection, is a golden anniversary card.
This is a side hinged card and was not as complicated as it might look.
The detail in the Cascading Fuchsia stamps is amazing!
Here is the inside of my card, ready for a sentiment and then off to the recipient!
For complete instructions for this card and all the Heartfelt design team's projects please visit the Heartfelt Blog. The blog also has many tutorials that give you step by step directions for creating the beautiful flowers and elements from Heartfelt's collections.
