Valentines - Chocolate Box

This is my 2013 Valentines card !


It is made from decorating a large love heart punch with cute tiny bits and pieces to look like a posh selection of chocolates.

The background square is tissue paper, crunched up to look like choc wrapper.

The bottom border is pink card with a straight cut line of silver doily.

The tricky part of this card project is sticking the tiny bits and pieces onto the card - I used some interesting brownish buttons and small cut-outs of different texturised paper as well as trying my hand at some quilling (rolling up a strip of shredded paper).

Post workshop everything gets dumped on my bags for sorting later on when I get home! Sample Card...
