Hello and Happy Monday! I trust your weekend was lovely and the week has started on a good note for you. Today begins a new bi-weekly challenge at The Inspiration Station and the inspiration photo is a "sweet" one!
Before I get to my design team project, I wanted to announce The Inspiration Station is collaborating with The Double Trouble Challenge #103 for the next 2 weeks! Our challenge themes are similar so please visit and link up with them also. A Huge "Thank You" to Double Trouble for teaming up with us!
Now, for my design team project, I've created a Valentine's Day card using images from the Sweetheart Candy digital set by Jan's Digi Stamps.
The images have been colored using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, the patterned paper is from the Kat Scrappiness Heartfelt Wishes Slimline Paper Pack and the banner flag is a dimensional sticker from my stash (The Dollar Tree I believe....which is now the Dollar and a Quarter Store)
I wanted a bit more interest in the background so I've added dots using a white Gelly Roll Pen. Lastly, clear sequins were added for sparkle and shine.
We would be honored if you would share your inspired projects with us at The Inspiration Station and The Double Trouble Challenge. Until next time, Happy Crafting!

What a FABULOUS creation Donna! That background paper is PERFECT and love your over all design!! 'Sweet' inspiration! Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteI love that you put those little white dots all over your background and the way they lift it without distracting from the focal point. I remember biting down on quite a few of those wonderful chalky Sweethearts, it is wonderful to see I'm not alone. xx
ReplyDeleteSuper pretty card Donna - loving the way you have used the candy images
ReplyDeleteStay safe
