Delightful Challenges

** Please scroll down to for the MTME Pretty Patterns #45 post **

Hi again!  Thanks for coming back.  I do so enjoy your visits.  This week's challenge at Delightful Challenges is a fun one.


Anything but a Card w/Valentine's Theme

Now, I've already shared my sentiments about Valentine's Day - not a huge fan.  But I am a huge fan of fun paper, cute images and chocolate!


I created this bag in a box by following a tutorial on SCS.  This was fun, easy to do and pretty quick.  You can make these for any occasion.  In fact, I think I might make another one with a baby theme.  There's a girl at work expecting, I think this would be adorable filled with binkies and travel sized baby powder and lotion.

Supplies:
Image: Lara Ladybug
Card stock: Neenah Classic Crest, Pink Pirouette, Black
Paper: Pink Gingham checks (unk)
Copics: 100, E00, E02, E37, R11, R27, R29, RV02, RV10
Tools: Heart border punch (MS), Scallop Circle Nesties (Spellbinders), circle cutter (CM), tab punch (SU!),
1/4" circle punch
Embellishments: pink satin ribbon (Offray)
Template: Box in a bag SCS
