So I have been wanting to get the crafty juices flowing, and after I watched this video by BACraftygirl, a youtube channel I love to watch. She does lots of PTI hauls and this month she is sponsoring an inspiring contest.
The main goals of the contest are to make:
1. a valentine treat holder
2. use two or more stamps
3. use NO red or pink
"Hmmmmmm!" I thought to myself as I rubbed my chin in contemplation at this challenge. Valentine's is one of my favorite holidays (any time of year I can get especially giddy over my beloved bf I am a happy camper); and purple, a color that I adore but strangely don't use very much, would be a perfect element to add to this project.
I loved getting a change to break out my new PTI goodies, and utilize some older supplies too! This treat box is a lot of fun to put together. I typically don't like to use ribbon, and I don't have much PTI ribbon, but as it just so happens, I had some plum pudding saddlestitch,
I got a bug up my butt one day to make my own dangly-charms, because all of the others I had found shopping online were either not quite what I wanted, or rather too expensive. The Tim Holtz tiny paperclip holds it quite well!
Happy crafting! I hope everyone is having a great day to start off their week. xoxo
This is so cute! I purcased this little valentine set, and haven't even opened it yet! Now I need to use it soon!! Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteThat's a difficult challenge (no red or pink for Valentine's) but you pulled it off fabulously!
