Stamping Down South

Welcome to Heartfelt Creations Wednesday, today I'd like to share a card using one of the newest stamp sets from Heartfelt Creations newest release, "Springtime Cardinal Collection". This is "Cheery Cardinal" and includes the image and sentiment:

I found this delicious cherry design paper from October Afternoon in my stash and knew this would be the perfect compliment to my cardinal image. I also layered my posy in the stamped image using the matching posy in the Posy Patch Flowers PreCut set. How thrilling to have everything I need right at my fingertips!
