Melissa here and today I’m sharing a few cards made with the adorable, new Box of Chocolates, Heart Card Base, and Ladybug Shaker dies. They are phenomenal!
My first card uses the sweet Box of Chocolates die…I am smitten with this collection! It contains everything you’ll need to create your own custom box of chocolates, including the tiny paper cups, hearts, circles, and square-shaped chocolates. You’ll even find sprinkles and drizzle for the tops!
After assembling my box of sweets, I wrapped it up using the bow die included in this set…every tiny detail was perfectly thought out and executed. My sentiment comes from the new Valentine Banner Greetings and is stamped on a Banner Greetings 2 die. My background was created using the darling Layered Cupid Items Stencils…love them!
My next card uses the new Heart Card Base, which creates the cutest interactive tag or focal point for your handmade Valentines this year. I die cut my heart from patterned paper and then adhered it to a die cut Eyelet Heart. Next, I dressed up the inside using the new Love You Shadow die and Valentine Banner Greetings stamp set. I tied my heart closed with gingham ribbon and added the new Love Words stencil to create my background.
Lastly, I’ve used the irresistible Ladybug Shaker die to create my card. I began with the Layered Ladybug Stencils, creating my background. I then added two different sizes of Pinking Rectangles, the largest cut from vellum followed by a smaller cut from white cardstock.
I added my paper-pieced ladybug and followed up with a sentiment from the Valentine Banner Greetings stamp set, stamped on a die cut Banner Greetings 2. I used flowers from the Valentine Holder Additions die to bring in some softness.
