Love is in the Air
Love is in the air as the Stampin’ Pretty Pals share the love with cards and projects for today’s Pals Blog Hop!
Now that I’m back from my long winter’s nap….. I thought I’d better Hop to it!
Inspiration for this project came from having too many treat bags and Red Vines/Twizzlers after Christmas. I had to seal them up fast before I ate them all! I’m not usually a heart fanatic but I really wanted to use the new Framelits found in our newest Occasions Mini Catalog for something special. I think I’ve changed my mind. These thin dies are nothing short of FANTASTIC!
Look close and you’ll see areas of the sentiment embellished with Dazzling Details.
Candy was slipped into 1″x8″ Cellophane Treat Bags and topped off with punched photo corners. I think Cupid would be proud.
This project is 1/2″ thick and definitely should be sent in a padded envelope or personally delivered. The back can be signed, stamped or just left alone.
