Pattie's Creations Challenge #215

Happy February!


And here is my inspiration make.
SUPPLIES USED:
Kraft card stock
Basic Grey Bittersweet 12x12 designer paper collection
White paper heart doily
WPlus9 Cupid die
Crafters Companion With Love die
Impression Obsession die (inside)

 
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my layout design, stretching it to A9 size.
But oops, I left out the #2 element. I was going by memory, didn't print out the sketch and completely forgot about it until after I'd finished. 

I used Kraft card for my base and layered on the BG red paper base mat. I edge-distressed the dotted paper and layered it on. After coloring the focal image, I arranged and adhered the doily, focal image and die cut Cupid. I cut two of the sentiment dies, adhered them together and then onto the card.

 
Inside, I used a pink Impression Obsession die cut. On back, some of the scraps from the same BG collection.

Closeup of my focal image. Everything was colored with Promarkers, except for the chocolate candies. I used Posca Paint Pens on them (brown and ivory). I edged the image with Spectrum Noir glitter markers, pink then red over that.

One last look.
Come join us in the challenge!
Thanks for the visit today, I appreciate it!

Wow!!! How clever that 3 of my blogs' themes are bundled in your scrumptious Valentine's card!!! You've achieved a great balance between all the different red and pink tones and pairing it with the fun geometric print papers on the front and back adds playful fun! Awesome to do HQCOLCB's Feb option event of Valentine's Day, FQHSKCB's anything food/candy, and HQCB's #47 make your duo of Cupid and heart-shaped doily! Thanks x 3!!! --Becca

This piece is sweet, both about the candy box and the way you made this. I think adding the doily adds some great texture. And I like the cupid too. Both of these really play off the candy box nicely. I hope you have a super weekend coming up. We're supposed to finally see some sun- hurrah. hugs-Erika
