So Sweet! ~ TPE #234

Good Morning Monday!

And

Happy Martin Luther King Day 

here in the U.S.!


Another good thing about Monday ---





is a Color Challenge --



Use Red, Pink and a color of your choice!

Valentine's Day is coming up

so I'm busy making 

Valentines:



SPIES:

STAMPS:  Bear Digital Image (Beary Dust Designs); Candy and Sentiment-(Technique Tuesday).
PAPER: Brown, red and white cardstock.  DP - Sweetheart (Doodlebug Design).
INK: Tuxedo Black (Momento); Versamark; Copics; white emboss powder.
EXTRAS: Scallop circle Framelit (Sizzix); Basic circle Framelit (Sizzix); Pennant die (Taylored Expressions); Glossy Accents; pink baker's twine.

I chose brown as my other color for my card for TPE this week.  When I saw the pattern paper with candy all over it, I knew I wanted to use my candy stamps.  So that's where it grew!  The digital image I used is one I've had in my stash for quite a while.  I haven't used it probably since right after I got it.  

I added Glossy Accents to all the candy pieces.  After I stamped and colored them they just looked a little drab, so I decided to brighten them up.  The "Smartie" candy strip has a more 3D look to it, just hard to see in the photo.  I also put a drop on the hearts above the image.


So stop on over to 


and see what wonderful projects
