Valentines Treaties for the Sweaties!

 

Good morning! Today I'm here at SSINK and we are sharing fun Valentines Day cards, bags, tags and boxes.  Its fun to give candy treats, but its even better to receive them in fun decorated ways.

 

 

I am in love with the new Stampin' Up! treat bag thinlit set.  This just happens to be one of the fun projects my stamp club ladies will be creating this weekend.

 

 

I created this treat bag with a slide out insert.  It holds two small Ghirardelli candy squares perfectly.

 

Supplies Used

Cardstock ~ cherry cobbler, whisper white, basic black

Ink ~ cherry cobber, sahara sand

Stamp set ~ you plus me

DSP ~ stacked with love

Misc. ~ gold bakers twine, treat bag thinlit set, basic black 1/8" taffeta ribbon

 

 

You're Sweet!!

 

Good morning, thanks for stopping by to visit.  Today I am over at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration where love is in the air!  Today is also the release day for the all new Stampin' Up! Spring Occasions Catalog and the new Sale-A-Bration Catalog.  I have links to both new catalogs on my side bar for your convenience.  Today the designers are sharing projects created for Valentines Day.  So be sure to head on over to our main site and see what the others have created.

 

Since its getting so close to Valentines Day, I wanted to share another card I created using the "You Plus Me" stamp set. 

 

The stamping is simple and I created the dots with crystal effects and colored them with my calypso coral blendabilities.  The fun of the card comes in when I took the banner heart thinlet from the Mini Treat Bag set and cut out strips from my whisper white layer.  I used two hearts to tie my Bermuda bay twine into a bow.  I did use stampin dimentionals to raise the white layer up.
