Hello everyone and welcome to another Sugar Creek Hollow Sensational Saturday! This week our challenge is to use fabric on our cards. A bow does NOT count. You can be creative with this in so many ways! I must say that when I first saw this challenge I was a little frightened. I don't sew and therefore don't really have a stitch of fabric in the house. Then it hit me! I do have some old jeans that are ripped and don't fit me anymore. I thought maybe I could make some flowers out of them. Then as I was turning them over and over the pocket caught my attention. Why not make a pocket card out of an actual pocket?! Due to the weight of the denim I did make my card out of some thin chipboard which I covered over with DP to give it enough strength to hold the candy bar up. The cute I "heart" chocolate stamp is a new Valentine release from Sugar Creek Hollow. It comes in a set of 4 tags. I copied it twice and changed the color on one to navy blue and one to red. Once I printed them I trimmed the red one to fit inside the blue one and added stickles. The beautiful County Crinkle Ribbon is also from the SCH Shoppe.
The hearts were created with a Martha Stewart heart punch and one of her deep edge punches.
I used red glitter on the large heart and then sealed it with a clear acrylic glaze.
The inside also uses a new release from SCH. The You're so sweet circle tag is so versatile. You could use this for Valentine's Day, a thank you card, birthday card etc. The possibilities are endless.
