How Have You Bean?

Hi and Happy Monday,

The team from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is back this morning with a variety of new projects. With Valentine's Day in about a month, my mind has been leaning in that direction ever since the new year began.

For my project today, I used a template from Lauren Meader to create a little treat box. After printing it out, I embellished the front by embossing it and rubbing over it with some chalk to highlight the textured design. I just adore these cute little jelly beans from the Sweet Stuff set and they pair perfectly with the sentiment from the Coffee Talk set. After coloring them with Bic Mark-its, I added some Glossy Effects to give them dimension and shine.
This is the inside with the real life jelly beans, a view of the Velcro closure and the ribbon which I tied around so the bow would be on top.

Thanks for visiting me. I hope this got your creative juices flowing and to see more inspiration you can visit the rest of the team below:
