Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello there!

I am back with another Friday Inspiration.  Before we get any further, I want to wish all that celebrate a Happy Valentine's Day!  Grab a loved one or friend and give them an extra squeeze and let them know how important they are to you!  That is my inspiration for today.

Inside this little box are some chocolates that I plan to share with a friend.  The box was cut out from the Silhouette and the closure on the top is nesting hearts.  The papers around the box are by Echo Park - Love Story collection.  After I stuffed the box full of chocolates, I added some tulle to close the box.


Then I had some fun with my Tim Holtz Distress Inks.  It has been a while since I have played with them, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity.  I have used Spun Sugar, Weathered Wood, Aged Mahogany and Worn Lipstick.  I stamped in the background with Penny Black - Love Chapter images, but they are slightly hard to see in the picture.  After I was happy with the outcome of the background, I added the C. C. Designs - Be Happy Sentiment to the tag.  It is finished off with some Wild Orchid flowers, lace and dew drops.  By the way - have you seen all the fun new Wild Orchid Flowers Laura has added to the store?  They are absolutely beautiful!
Here is the finished product all together!

Supplies used:
Lace
Pearls
Dew Drops

I feel like I have babbled quite a bit today, but I was really happy with how this turned out and couldn't wait to share it with you!

Remember, this week we have our Paper Piecing Challenge going until Monday, come and join the fun! 
That is it for me!  I hope you have a fantastic Valentines Day and a great weekend!
Blessings until next time...

PTT # 118 -Anything Goes

Hello Blogging Friends!

Today I am back with an other Anything Goes Challenge at Party Time Tuesdays!  So make sure to come on over and share your fun creations with us this week!

Our fabulous sponsors are:



Stamp Fairy generously provided the digi image, Mimi Stars for me to use this week.  She looks like she is ready to have a lot of fun!  I have colored her with copics and cut a border out with Spellbinders Labels 23.  Since this is an Anything Goes week, I decided to make a card box.  The pattern was purchased from Silhouette Studio.  I used My Minds Eye coordinating papers on the box, some lace, ribbon, charm, and a butterfly.







Copics used:
Skin: E000, E00, E21
Hair:  E33, E35, E37
Dress:  V01, V06, V15


For the inside, I used a bag and sticker provided by our sponsor SRM Stickers.  The sentiment is by Amy R.  I thought it would be cute to put some garden seeds in the bag as a cute gift for a friend.


Be sure to stop by this week and play along with us.

Thank you for stopping by today!
Blessings until next time...
