It's Tuesday, so that means it's time for an all new
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge! Thanks to all who played along last week! This week, Heather is our lovely hostess and she chose: Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More! Otherwise, create
ANYTHING other than a card!
I opted to make a few mini Valentine decorations ~ one for my dear husband, Scott and one for my sweet sister, Tina.
Truth be told, I only planned on making one ~ the neutral one but when I asked Scott for his 2 cents, he thought it looked naked and suggested I add color so this one is for you baby ;) I merely swapped out the flower, buttons, ribbon, added a hint of color to the stamped image and decorative trim and used a piece of Kraft colored cs instead of upcycled corrugated cardboard.
Here's a close up of the pretty image:
To make these minis, I used a Classic Heart die to cut a piece of canvas, stamped the beautiful floral image and a few bees from Bee My Honey. Stitched it on to a corrugated scalloped heart that was cut using a Classic Scalloped Heart die, added bits and pieces of various trim and a ribbon hanger.
Each were finished it off with a sweet tag:
This set contains a variety of both honey bees and sentiments.
Thanks so much for visiting!
