I {heart} papers DT Challenge
Tuesday, January 18, 2011 at 02:35AM Every month the i {heart} papers design team has a challenge. This month the challenge was an inspiration challenge based on the European Candy Boutique. I had a really tough time with this challenge. First I thought I would make a paper chain and do some sort of count down to Valentine's Day. That idea did not work out, then I thought I would do something with the clear pails you see in the photo, that did not work out either. I wound up making this little Valentine book that holds a piece of candy. I think I could have done a way better job, but I pretty much used up almost all of the beautiful Valentine paper from the Be Mine collection by Echo Park. I did not have a little box so I made one by using the spellbinders deckle dies and stacking them up. I do like the pretty fan flower I made, and the yummy chocolate inside!
