Well, I had my Valentine's Day treats all mapped out for my kids, but then I saw these beautiful strawberries at the grocery and decided I need to make some chocolate strawberries instead. Guess now I'm ahead for their Easter treats! Anyway, I decided to make bag toppers and fill some cello bags with the pretty strawberries for my older kids who aren't living at home anymore. I'm playing along in the first Love Fest challenge which is to use things starting with the letters l,o,v, and e. I die cut my melon mambo piece and then used my Heart Pressed Letterpress plate to letter press the Very Vanilla hearts onto it. I used the Omitting with Markers technique to ink up the center part of my image before punching it out. I used my Versamarker to highlight the word LOVE and embossed with clear ep.

What a great treat! I really like your bag topper and the clever way that you got your L.O.V.E. in. PS - love the comment you made on my card...giggle!! Happy Valentine's Day to you and your family.

Sweet! Those look so yummy; I am sure they are gone by now! The bag topper is adorable and doesn't sound like it took alot of work- no worries when the kids tear it off!
