Sweet Treats from a Ladybug

Hello Everyone! Happy Saturday!

I hope you had a wonderful week and if you are fortunate enough to have a three day weekend...enjoy!

Today I am sharing a treat bag filled with sweet Hershey treats. The file is from the Silhouette On-line store (#31882) and it is by Lori Whitlock.

The ladybug is by Miss Kate Cuttables. Perfect for Valentine or to show someone how much you love them!

The stamped sentiment is by Jaded Blossom ~ Valentine Treat set.

I think the red tulle is a perfect way to close the top.

Challenges:

Jaded Blossom ~ Crafter's Choice

Pause Dream Enjoy ~ Anything Goes

Little Scrap Pieces ~ Show It Off Saturday

DL.Art ~ January Linky Party

Thanks for stopping by!

Stay Creative,

Georgiana

A lady bug and a couple butterflies are perfect for Spring.

Crinkle ribbon is the best!
