Love Bird Treat Basket

Today Taylored Expressions releases all the new sets! Sorry I haven't been able to showcase any of them but I'm hoping you've had a chance to cruise the Baker's Dozen blogs and check them out :)
Once again I have used the Wings of Joy stamp set for Valentine's Day.
This cute little box was created in seconds. It was the handle that took longer...lol
My Martha heart punch is really hard to use and I have to lean on it with all my weight just to get it to punch....lol!
The birds were stamped in Memento Black ink and coloured with Copics. I added some red stickles to the heart. Punched hearts cover the mistletoe ;)

Here is a close up of the glitter on the heart...
Stamps: Wings of Joy; Cardstock: Choice Snow White, Prism Blue and Red, MME Love Me Do; Inks: Memento black; Accessories: Copics, Nesties, Heart border punch, Red stickles, Dimensionals
Thanks for stopping by today!

I LOOOOOVE the look of the heart border for the handle!! Such pretty papers too. ADORABLE box, my friend!

Sorry the punch gave you fits though. :( I've been looking for it, but I guess it's sold out everywhere. Maybe it's a GOOD thing I haven't found it if it's hard to use.

{{{big hugs}}} we totally missed seeing your wonderful creations, but geesh this little treat container is so CUTE! I would have not thought about using this holiday set to make a Valentine's creation! I hope you get your stamps soon!!

Love the adorable basket. And the colors are so perfect. I also have been looking for that heart punch too. Maybe your paper was to thick or heavy. I'll bet with the designer paper, you wouldn't have had that hard of a time punching. Do you have a tutorial for the basket somewhere on your blog. I would love to try to make one.

Dawn this is absolutely adorable! Great colors. And I know what you mean about that MS punch. Mine does the same thing. I practically have to stand on it to get it to work!
