SodScrap Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Celebrating Valentine's Day always makes me think of candy. Candy hearts. Chocolate hearts. Valentine Candy Corn. Pink and red M & Ms. You name it, if it is candy, they make it special for Valentine's Day!! (sugar overload anyone??) Chances are you bought Valentine candy for a gift (OR yourself, I won't tell!!) or you received some as a gift. Your challenge today is to create a layout using (any) Valentine candy for your inspiration. You can use the colors or the shapes of the candy. Or you might choose to use the texture of the wrap or a design element from the packaging. The possibilities are endless. I have included some photos for inspiration, but you are not limited to these. Please share your inspiration with us. I cannot wait to see the gorgeous layouts you create! Please post your layouts in the Weekend Challenge Gallery and post a link back in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SodScrap Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 Here is MY LAYOUT When I think of Valentine candy it's the traditional red foil heart box of chocolates. My color scheme comes from this as well as the gold foil heart background paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The template is layered and all I did was clip papers to the different layers. http://store.scrapgirls.com/ScrapSimple-Paper-Templates-Marbled-Masks.html I experimented a while with the colors of the papers that I used, so I'm so glad you like how it turned out!

Thanks, Diane! ? I was curious if those were papers or if you used a different method. I love that after you clip papers, you can move them to different layers to get the end result you are looking for. Sometimes how I think it's going to work doesn't, so I just rearrange papers until it looks right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
