What a weekend. The DH and youngest DD where away and I managed to get my DD's newbedroom painted and all her furniture into her new bedroom before they got back. Not bad for 24hrs I had some help from my other daughter and probably wouldn't have got it finished without her help. Still alot of stuff to sort out but we are getting there.
Anyway I have managed to get some crafting time and have joined the High-hopes challenge blog. This week they have a sketch to share with us and if that isn't enough they are having a guest designer team call. What an opportunity, to join this fun, funky, creative team for a few months. I for one would love to be part of the team. You have to use the sketch and send some details to them and what a difficult task they will have to get down to 2 people. So here is the piece I have made using the sketch for the front of the card/gift.
I have made this using the basic grey twoscoops papers. I scored the card to allow area for the chocolate inside the card. The image I used is Bethany Angel isn't she cute. On the second leaf I added the element sticker 'Cherish' sentiment from the twoscoops pack and used my punches to add some detail.
On the inside I have made a poem, I hope that you can read it. On the left leaf I have used an opaque pearl foil and sticky stuff to create a swirl. I used the nestibilities to cut the shape. The middle has love and kisses these are chocolates. The "Love" element is a sticker again from the twoscoops pack, I have coloured it with Fired brick distressing ink to make the colour deeper. 
On the right leaf is the rest of the poem and another sticker from the pack. The flowers I have used are from Prima and I just love these flowers. I coloured the foil on the chocolates using the distress alchol inks to make them blend better with my work.

I always give my kids something for valentines and as much as things are strained between us, I want her to know that we love her.
