Pink {{{Hugs}}}!
Do you adore giving or receiving sweet little surprise gifts? I know the practice occurs between friends, sometimes between co-workers, & surely between loved ones. Today I’ve got a very quick & easy-to-assemble idea, with a simple band of papers belted around a hinged tin filled with sweet Valentine candies.
The sweet ‘Heartily Yours’ stamp set is by Nina Brackett of Gina K. Designs. I’ve silver embossed the sentiment, and simply stamped the love birds in pink, adding a wee bit of color with just 2 markers. The ‘belly-band’ or belt was easily cut to fit, layering a dry embossed silver layer atop a border punched pink layer. Scor-Tape secured the band for easy sliding on & off from the hinged tin. Voila’! Give it a try for a sweet surprise soon!
It’s so good to see you here! Wishing you an Mmmmm-mmmmmmmm sweet day!
