Paper Sweeties February Inspiration Challenge #28 - 'Sweetheart'

Today I have a card for the February Inspiration Challenge at Paper Sweeties! Here is our inspiration photo:


 Isn't that a "Sweetheart" of a picture!  Love the gingham and bows and pretty colors!

I want to give a special welcome to this month's Guest Designer Sierra Winters!  We are so glad that you are here!

 I decided to create a shaker card with a banner going across the heart-shaped aperture using one of my favorite stamps from a Paper Sweeties set called "Fun Shapes".  Isn't this heart with the "xox" sentiment adorable?!?!  There is also a matching set of Sweet Cuts Dies to go with it!
I added lots of lovely "Robin Egg"  and  "Sweetheart Mix" Sequins from Paper Sweeties as well as some others I had in my crafty stash.  It makes such a lovely sound when you give it a good little shake! 
And here is a peek at the inside of the card.  The sentiment "Sending Warm Hugs and Kisses" is from the "Let it Snow" stamp set.  I think it is the perfect sentiment to go with all of the "xox" hearts on the front of the card!

Have you heard about the Paper Sweeties Design Team Call?


 If you enjoy creating with Debbie's lovely Paper Sweeties stamps and sweet cuts you may be interested in trying out for the design team.  You can find all of the information about the Design Team Call on this post at the Paper Sweeties Blog:  HERE.
