Treat Box for Valentine's Day
Hello. I have just returned from a trip to Tennessee to be with my Mother for her 92nd birthday. We all had a great time visiting and celebrating. She is full of life and in good health and keeps us laughing with tales of her life ....she remembers everyone she meets and knows everyone's history including everything about everyone's life.
I have rushed to get an entry in for Timeless Tuesday's challenge to make make anything but a card, something like a treat box or bag or even a tag. Since the Flourishes January Stamp Sets release was waiting in the mail for me last night (I still cannot believe I won it in last week's challenge and that it arrived so quickly), I decided to use one of these beautiful sets. I chose "From the Heart" stamps to create a box that I will fill with candy for someone...wonder who???
Made my box with White CS for the lid and Red CS for the bottom. I added a border of hearts using an EK Border Punch from the Red CS. I stamped a flourish and sentiment on the lid with Memento Rhubarb Stalk. Used the same ink to stamp the lovely ornate heart and the banner and sentiment which is popped up on the heart. Attached this to a red scalloped heart cut out with a Spellbinder die and attached this to a band of Heart Ribbon from my stash. Now to find some candy.
