SHEEPSKI DESIGNS - FEBRUARY BLOG CHALLENGE

Well here we are with Challenge #10 for.....

SHEEPSKI DESIGNS BLOG CHALLENGE
The theme for this challenge is....
RED/HEARTS/ROMANCE/LOVE
You can read the rules....
HERE
So here is my DT inspiration for you!
I used Andrea's image 'ROCKET & ROSIE'

You can purchase it

HERE
Here is my inspiration for you....

I took a 5.5 square red card base and layered the front with paper with tiny red hearts all over it.
I die cut various size hearts in a contrasting red paper with white hearts.
I used foam tape to adhere the image topper on top of the biggest hearts and put the smaller ones in the top right corner. I put a red ribbon bow in the top left corner.
On the inside I made a pocket with the same paper as I used to layer the front of the card then made a gift card to fit in the pocket using one of the Ephemera cards from the paper I used.
I hope you like what I did with the image and it will give you some inspiration.

Thank you for visiting today.

Happy crafting!!

CRAFT CONSORTIUM - SANTORO #5

Hi there!

Day 5
and the final day of my projects I made to showcase the adorable
SANTORO collections at CRAFT CONSORTIUM.

Right now there is a sale going on with 25% off!!

So why not pop over and grab a bargain or two.
So my fourth and final project I am sharing is this cute CAROUSEL featuring the papers from KORI KUMI featuring papers from the 8x8 paper collection...
(https://www.craftconsortium.com/product-page/santoro-kori-kumi-8-x8-premium-paper-pack) 

This actually lights up with a battery operated tealight but I could not get a good enough picture to show it.
This is a cutting file which I purchased quite some time ago from a lovely lady ANNE HUXTER whose site is TREASURED TEMPLATES
I thought the papers were perfect for this project and I have to say I adore these Kori Kumi collections! They are so versatile and can be used for so many different projects.

You can see all the SANTORO collections here...

So my third project I am sharing is this cute card featuring the papers from KORI KUMI 'BEYOND THE SEA'...

I used papers from the paper pad and the base topper from a decoupage set.

Love these characters.

I added a heart and bow in the bottom left corner.

I also made a cupcake/treat box using the 3D decoupage pieces for decoration on the front. I placed some of the fabric flowers on the sides and used some teal ribbon to tie the box closed.
