Festive Friday Challenge #0102 - Valentine's Day
It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.
This week’s challenge FF #102 - Valentine's Day
Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!
I created a Spanner Fold Card using the Lover & Happiness Bundle from the January to June Mini Catalogue. This is one of my favourite fancy folds and is such a WOW card even though it's pretty easy to make.

- Emboss and cut using the Love & Happiness Hybrid Embossing Folder and Heart Die.
- Cut Window Sheet 1 1/4" x 5"

- Adhere to the middle flap
- Wrap ribbon around bottom of the middle flap and tie a bow
- Cut out 3 small flowers and 1 small heart using dies from Night of Navy ink.
- Adhere flowers to left hand side and heart to the right hand side using Dimensionals.
- Adhere rhinestones to the flower centres and 2 on the large heart.
