Tuesday Trigger - Sweets For The Sweet

I had a little time to play this afternoon, so I decided to make a card for this week's Tuesday Trigger on Moxie Fab World - Sweets For The Sweet!  What a yummy looking inspiration we had to work with!

Here is this week's trigger:


Here is my take on it:


I used this week's Sketch 99 from the Card Patterns blog for my layout.  I started with a base of Gina K. Designs Pure Luxury Cranberry Tart CS.  The patterned paper is from the Basic Grey Bittersweet collection.  The pattern of the bottom panel reminded me of the flourishes inside the candy box.  The hot pink center panel and soft burgundy wrinkled silk ribbon were inspired by the colored tissue paper lining the box.  I created a scalloped border to mimic the one on the box.  Finally, I punched 3 hearts with an EK Success heart punch then covered them with glitter to make three yummy "fudge hearts". Each got its own little scalloped "holder".  The sentiment is from Gina K. Designs Happy Hearts set (by Tami Mayberry). It's clear embossed and cut out with Scallop and Classic Circle Nestabilities. 

I truly appreciate you stopping by!  Have a great evening!
