Sweet Treats for You

Happy Monday from Jan's Digital Stamp Shop's Design Team! 

While winter storm 'Izzy' is dumping her snow over the east coast this weekend - I'm spending the long weekend with several girlfriends crafting away waiting for a peek at the snow that never came here where I am in SC.

For my Sweetheart Candy card I've selected the 'Slip and Lock' Technique.


I worked with two different images from this package to make this card.  First I took the 'double candy' image and duplicated it to cover the size of an A2 print.  This is my background paper which I cut into two rectangles to fit the front panels.  

Next I sized the candy jar to about 2 1/2" tall, printed it on Neenah 110# cardstock and colored it with my Copic markers. 
I used Penny Black's Elegant Stitching die to get the delicate edging. 

For the card base I cut white card stock to 4 1/4" x 11" and folded the two sides in to meet in the middle. Each side is  covered with the solid mauve paper, then the printed candy image.

I also backed the colored image with the mauve paper.  To make the slider part, which attaches this piece to the base, I cut 2 pieces of white cardstock the same size as the matted piece (behind the colored image). Next the white pieces are folded in half lengthwise.   With the fold side toward the center, each of these are glued to the back of the colored image.  The video I followed is referenced below - it's probably easier to see this than to follow my directions! 

However I do hope you will visit Jan's store and her Challenge blog.  There are several beautiful cards there by my fellow design teammates.  ALSO ~ Check out this month's Freebie in Jan's Store ~ Top Hat!
