Love Note by Tonya Gibbs

Last week I shared with you my little "How I Love You Mini Album".  When I was clearing off my desk for my next project, I realized I had enough scraps to make a few more items.  So today I'm sharing with you a card and treat bag that I made with the scraps.

 

This card came together quickly and I love how it matches the gift that will accompany it. (My little mini).   The sentiment is from a Studio G stamp and was heat embossed with Ranger's Red Glitter embossing powder.  The flags and heart were left over from the Count Down to Kisses Sampler paper.  To give the card some depth between layers,  I added a Cheery Lynn Designs Polynesian Sails Oval Die cut in black cardstock between the background and overlaying banner cluster.   The banner is the b-side of the swirls paper.

 

For the candy treat bag, I used a couple of  'Mini' candy bars and wrapped the 'Lips and Stash' paper around them, Then placed them into a clear zip bag, and topped it with more of the paper. A little seam binding finished off the top of the bag.  These make super simple Valentines for the little ones  in my world.

 

 

As you know, I love using my scraps.  But I find it super rewarding to use them immediately after a project is complete. 

 

Thanks for stopping in today.
