*********************************
I was thrilled when I saw the "Lovely" collection from Authentique Papers with the beautiful Darjeeling flowers and florettes from Petaloo and ribbon from May Arts! With Valentine's Day just around the corner I just had to create some cards and a little present to give away. Everybody loves a home made card, and with these lovely papers, flowers and ribbon the result can't be anything but beautiful!
I used one 12x12 kraft cardstock for my three cards, all sized 3x4 inches. I have layered papers, stickers and diecuts from Authentique Papers in different ways, and decorated with darling Darjeeling flowers from Petaloo and ribbon and lace from May Arts. I have also put some sweets in a little bag and sealed it with the "Lovely" papers and florettes.
Here are more pics of my cards:
I have softened the edges of the papers and die-cuts with a bit of gesso.
Just look at these flowers - sweet as candy, aren't they?!
Ok, I'm not gonna eat the flowers, but I might just eat the candy in this gift bag:
Decorating a bag filled with candy is such an easy way to make something sweet if you need a little present for someone. Here is a close-up of the top of the bag. The little sticker "I'm sweet on you" was just perfect here :)

Darjeeling Dahlias - Red Raspberry
Darjeeling Mini Pearl Daisies - Red Raspberry
Jeweled Florettes - Valentines

Papers from Authentique Paper - the Lovelyl collection

I'm wishing everyone a wonderful Valentine's Day! See you soon!
With love,
Helena
