Its time for another
InStyle Stamps inspirational challenge. There's love in the air today on the InStyle Stamps blog! We're talking about Valentine's Day with this InSpiration challenge - it seems far away but it's never too soon to get started! The fabulous Martha Stewart lent us an idea this month - were going to make our own packaging (or wrapping paper) and a matching card! Take a look at our inspiration:
I made a pillow box to hold some heart shaped choccies (hubby LOVES choccies) and a matching card. I took my inspirtion fro the swirly paper and the hot pink.
I used this cute digi,
Vanessa and coloured her in using my promarkers. For the pillow box I cut her out. The dp is Basic Grey Bittersweet, and I used retro punches to make my flowers and a Martha Stewart leaf punch. The brown organza ribbon is from my stash.
I am entering this into this week's
Sketch Saturday and
Craft your Days Away punch it out challenges.
And its time to show
Whats on Your Workdesk Wednesday ...

I bought one of those ink racks, but due to limited space in my room I got a much smaller one than yours... now I'm really jealous!
