Happy Valentines Day blog friends! I gotta tell ya...I love anything romantic, but I married the perfect guy to also have fun. He makes me laugh all the time, which is probably why I feel much younger than I am. To whit...the other day I was browsing the valentine/candy aisle and came across this 50/50 candy bar--50% his, 50% hers, called the "Martial Bliss Bar". Of course everyone knows that to keep a marriage happy, the wife needs her chocolate (at least that's they way I've always heard it). That candy bar says it all...as long as hubby knows what constitutes his "50%" (more like 30%), the marriage should be pure marital bliss! LOL So sorry...but I just couldn't resist that candy bar (nor the pun). So I made this Pull-up Treat wrapper for my hubby for Valentines day--with, of course, the candy bar nestled inside! There's a great tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers website to make this treat wrapper, I just modified it a bit to fit the size of the candy I used.
Simon Says Stamp has their current challenge for Anything But a Card until Wednesday, for which I entered this treat wrapper. I don't always have time to do many challenges, but when I do I always like to check out Simon Says Stamp & Studio L3 (see previous blog post).
For this project the following supplies were used:
Tim Holtz (TH) Vintage Shabby Paper Stash inked with Black Soot & Walnut Stain Distress Ink (DI)
"1" "4" textured grungeboard inked with Aged Mahogany DI

I hope you all get to have a little fun today! Lisa
