Fun and for a friend with a birthday on or around February 14th is what I had in mind for this card. After all how serious can you be when you are listening to Thing 1, 2, Crazy Sister and possibly some cousin! That is some way out family for sure! Anyway, Double Trouble and Inspiration Station teamed up for their current challenges and they both have inspiration photos showing valentine heart candy in pastels. So using the sketch at Fusion, I set to work to meet the requirements for all of these challenges. Pastels and hearts is my takeaway from Inspiration Station and the directions at Double Trouble were explicit -- no chocolate, so that ruled out doing the whole challenge over at Fusion (just the sketch) -- but I'm hoping macarons are acceptable! For some reason I was drawn to use this bold green DSP. I'm not a pastels person, so I think I needed it to balance the pastels. A picture of the cards without the doodling is below the challenges...I just felt it needed something else! I would love to know what you think, you can even make suggestions for how you would have done it! Thanks for looking, have an awesome week. Smiles, Kathy

You did a great job in meeting all the requirements for our partnered challenges and your candy hearts and macarons look great against the green background. Actually Thing 1 was only putting the chocolates away for this challenge. Keep in touch with us for future fun challenges, you may be able to use chocolates.
