I made 4 of these Valentines for the little girls in the family. They were much more time-consuming than I thought they would be. By pulling up the tab, the candy comes out on the inside of the card without destroying the card. The candies are Valentine Colored M&Ms. The Embossed Bird is Riding Hood Red and does match the DSP "in real life". I love this Sweetheart set...perfect for feminine cards. TFL! :-)
For some reason, when uploading this card, SCS System is not giving me the boxes to put in the detail information, so here it is:
Stamps: Sweetheart, Tiny Tiny Wishes
Paper: Riding Hood Red (RHR), Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla, Candy Lane DSP
Inks: Riding Hood Red (RHR), Close to Cocoa
Accessories: Full Heart Punch; Scallop Border Punch; Small Heart Punch; RHR Taffeta Ribbon; Versamark Pad; Clear EP, Sweet Treat Valentine Cups
Technique: Punching, Sweet Treat Cup Trap Door
Difficulty: 3 (Very Time-Consuming)

Really cute...question...How did you get that heart punched at the top of the card?:rolleyes: I've only been able to punch through at the bottom of the card with the punch?.. They are so cute, and yes they are time consuming but work it!!

What a great idea! A candy trap door. Amazing! I can see this being time consuming while you figure out how to do it. Sure turned out looking adorable and functional at the same time. Awesome!! Great color combo!! Lovely, lovely. TFS

Love the combination of patters, embossing and images! That treat cup looks great as the head of the flower and I just love the bird over the embossing! Fantastic card!
