I visit Dawn's blog as often as possible. I enjoy reading her blog and I love looking at her new creations. She is a fantastic person and such a sweetheart. Anyway, on Monday I saw her newest tutorial making a Valentine lollipop cover and knew that I had to make one.
Stamps:
- Cute Curls( The Kim Hughes Collection) by Cornish Heritage Farms.
Ink:
-Color Box Fluid Chalk Rouge and Fired Brick Distress Ink from Ranger
Cardstock:
-White Prismatic and Perfect Baby Pink from Prism Paper. Blush from BasicGrey.
Tools:
-Scor-Pal and punches.
Accessories:
-Small pink from Joy crafts from Ellen Hutson.
Pink and Brown Ribbon from Martha Stewart.
Technique:
-DP and sponging.
I apologize that my pictures did not come out as well as they could have. I noticed while I was re-sizing them that the cover looks a tad crooked. I should have taken the pictures over but it is very late and I am a little tired. ;) Aside from that I had a lot of fun making this little cover for the heart lollipop. I intend to make lots more of these little suckers for the little ones in my family. :)
Today was a fairly busy day for me. Or should I say yesterday? It is almost 2 AM here so that would make it Wednesday. So please forgive me but I need to keep my post short. I need to go to bed and get some well deserved sleep. I hope that all of you are having a wonderful week so far. Smile. :)
Nice design Mary. Love that ribbon!!!

Oh this is just so cute and I love lolipops myself. You'll have to email me and tell me about the new crop-a-dile. I can't use the other one because of my elbow and shoulder so I'm really interested in this one and if it's easier to use. :)
