Good Morning Ladies,
What a wonderful Sunday morning! The sun is shinning and all is at peace in my little corner of the world.
I got up this morning and did the math to make a bigger candy slide for
http://www.atjoansgardens.com/2012/02/fun-challenge-4.html
I like the king size Hershey bars...but the next size bigger was on sale 10 for 10 at my local Kroger store. So I only bought one king and several of the next size up. So here is another with that much bigger candy bar...
 This next size larger also gives you more room to embellish! That I love. So to create this candy slide I pull out several dies. My memory box bird and bird cage die was perfect to create two little love birds. I used a spellbinder die to create the heart circle that sits behind my little love birds. I used my memory box spiral flower die to create some flowers and a cheery lynn die for my foliage. A heart spellbinder die gives this slide a little more love. I used a heart boarder punch for my band. Pretty pink trim dances across this candy slide.
 The candy pulled up by the ribbon.
This is a close-up shot of my flowers. I gave something a try that worked out so well. My center flower is created die cutting the center of a Heartfelt creation flower I had stamped and colored. It gave it a total different look. I made too many of these flowers for another project. So I figured no loss if it didn't work out. I am so glad I tried it. I will be creating more of these in the future.
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog
