I am so excited to share with you a little project that I created for Stampin' Up!'s Facebook Page. With it being Valentine's Day next Tuesday the Artisan Award Winners were asked to share some love:) Make sure you check out what other "lovely" ideas they came up with HERE
The whole idea of this project is that Valentine's Day does not have to be just for kids and couples. I created this card and candy bag to give to some of my friends to let them know they are loved and appreciated. Do you remember when you were a child and how fun it was to make hand make Valentines for all your friends? My favourite ones were the kind that you could color in. For my project I decided to create a “grown up” version that I could color. I am in love with the gorgeous color palette from the Attic Boutique Designer Series Papers and the sweet image from the Greeting Card Kids Stamp Set is perfect for water coloring. Using an Aqua Painter with various ink pads I was able to channel my inner child and what Valentine’s project would be complete with out candy? The new Labels Collection Framelits make the perfect bag topper for Stampin’ Up!’s Cello Bags.
It is hard to tell from the photo but I put a dab of Crystal Effects on the heart to make it look like the cinnamon hearts in the cello bag.
