I had a grand time putting together Tim Holtz True Love die set. It was fun to make my own candies and use those traditional colors of Valentines (pink, red and white). I added a little gold too. I used glossy accents to give the candy a realistic look. Plus, I add some sprinkles, hearts and XO embellishments that I normally use for shakers. The background is embossed. I flipped the embossing so it was subtle. I also added a little Washi tape that is peaking out from behind. The inside says "Your the Sweetest, Happy Heart Day!" I made 11 of these cards to spread joy for Valentine's Day. These cards are 5x7 because I wanted more real estate to show on the card. I am also excited because I made more candies to use on upcoming Birthday cards! Who does not smile when they receive chocolate? I love chocolate and receiving it as a gift makes me smile! I consider Chocolate a food category (LOL)! Thanks for stopping by, and have a fantastic Heart Day!
