It looks great. Sometimes done is perfectly fine. I had ghosting in some of my projects today. Think I was just rushing, but it’s done and I’m gonna take that as a win and you should too. Your colours look great. Love LOKLiK too.

Loklik ideal studio link: See What I've Been Creating...
Story Time:
This little piece was made with love in every layer
Not just cardstock… not just a holder… but a reminder that even the smallest gifts can carry the biggest love.
I wanted something simple, sweet, and special for kids — something they’d be excited to give and proud to share 
A tiny gift that says “I thought of you” without needing a lot — just heart, creativity, and love 
Perfect for little hands, little Valentines, and big smiles
For classroom parties, school friends, and those sweet childhood memories we never forget 
Handmade with love, purpose, and passion —
because love should always be layered

I am not sure if this counts as a project but I want to share it.
So I tried something different I put htvront heart pattern htv on a mini rolling pin. I pinged the handles first then I used pice of heat tape to keep one part attached to start pressing it I think cutting it just short vs the overlap I did. But it still works just not perfect but a fun little project. I used the mini 3 press to iron it on.

Here’s my crafting-love Week 3 entry!#1
Theme: “Handmade Love in a Jar”
IdeaStudio link: See What I've Been Creating...
Story:
This jar shows love in the sweetest, simplest way—turning something ordinary into something meaningful. I upcycled one of my favorite coconut‑pineapple jars, cleaned it, designed every detail in IdeaStudio, and cut the vinyl myself. Even the peanut gave me a bit of trouble, but I worked through it and made it perfectly my own. I created this for my better half—he loves peanuts… lol.
It’s playful, personal, and handmade with intention — a small reminder that love doesn’t have to be big to be felt.

I’m not sure where to share this. I just wanted to share something I made. Here are some fun Valentine’s Day gifts I made. It’s a slim tumbler. I added a custom UV DTF to personalize it. I added some variety candy to give it a little extra touch.
These turned out so cute

Here’s my #CraftingLove entry for Week 3 entry #1
Theme: Everyday Life
IdeaStudio link: [Project | Park Bench Shadowbox]
Story: I made this for my hubby for his desk at work. It shows us on a park bench watching the sunset in the desert where we live. We even have our new little dog with us on the bench. This is my very first Shadowbox and I loved doing it, I was inspired by Cory’s beautiful boxes!
The background is chalk on velum to let the light of a led tea light in All of the artwork inside comes from htvront library except some grass cut by hand. The front panel has some paper quilling.
I’m so glad to be a part of this community and to be able to learn new things because of it!

Hi, Mary! 
If you created the design in the IdeaStudio, you can save it to My Zone, then Publish it by adding a description and photos, then come over here & enter it into this event using the format in the original post above. It would be a fantastic entry, if so. If they’re not made with Loklik assets, though, they won’t qualify as an entry.
In the future, if you just want to share your makes that aren’t designed in the IdeaStudio, you can always create a new topic under Inspiration and share them with us that way. More people will probably see it if you do. They really are beautiful tumblers. You did a fantastic job on them.

Thank you for that. I hope I remember those steps in the future.

Yeah, my memory can fail me, at times, too. 
I completely understand. You’re very welcome! Did you use the HTVRONT DTF printer? If so, you could also add that tag to your post as inspiration for those with the DTF Printer. I think you get more cheers points, too, for creating a new topic.

I screenshot the week rules
Also, this little tip helped me a lot, but I researched and figured out
So if you use the good old dashing # pound symbol when you are labeling your submission suck as
This is my # crafting love but without the space it will pull up when you hit pound all of the tags available for the community website. Make sure you start after the pay home typing out as I was saying crafting love and it’ll pull it up and just click on it.
Also, whenever you are in the Loklik app one a phone which is how I normally post now that I’ve went around even though the main page homepage projects find your name or the project you posted scroll all the way down to the bottom to the right hand side and you’ll see a little square with a arrow pointing northeast you’ll click it and on mine it pulls up Facebook and share link you click share link and it will copy it and you put that on this titling where I asked for your ideal studio link of what you’ve been working on ! I’m placing pictures below with highlighted areas to walk you through that! I know that that’s a whole lot !! but this community has really helped me work through all these little problems cause I had the same problems!
@Samantha_Bryant
I think I explained that ok and if not she will correct anything I messed up of missed!

Thanks, @shirleycobb! Screenshotting the rules is certainly a good idea. That will help make sure you have the proper tags and themes for the week, as well. I think you did very well at explaining. I do have a post called How to Enter Community Events that breaks everything down. And the A Beginner’s Guide | Getting Started with”Project Sharing” is also very helpful, for anyone who’s having trouble sharing their projects and entering the events. You can just start typing these titles into the search bar/magnifying glass, and they’ll pop right up for ya.

Here’s my crafting-love entry for Week 3!
Theme: Everyday Life
IdeaStudio link: See What I've Been Creating...
Story:
My love for reading is something I do regularly whenever I have a free moment or before going to sleep. It’s a time to immerse myself in parallel worlds and disconnect for a little while. When a story captivates you, you always want “Just one more page…” 
I designed this bookmark using figures from the IdeaStudio library, combining cuts and blends. The text is in the design program’s font, and I used my iCraft tool and the foil tip to transfer it to red cardstock in gold.
I’m sharing this as inspiration for book lovers. 
El amor por la lectura es algo que tengo como rutina cuando tengo un rato libre o antes de ir a dormir. Es un momento de sumergirse en mundos paralelos y desconectar un ratito. Cuando la historia te atrapa siempre queremos “Una página más…”.
He diseñado este marcapáginas con las figuras de la biblioteca de IdeaStudio, combinando cortes y fusiones. El texto está hecho con fuente del programa de diseño, con mi iCraft y la punta especial foil lo he pasado en color dorado a cartulina de color rojo.
Lo dejo de inspiración para los amantes de los libros.

Here is my crafting-love week3 entry 2
Theme: What’s Love /Love in Making /
Everyday
Ideal Studio link: See What I've Been Creating...
Yes the dotted line is to write name so someone underage doesn’t grab for a drink! 
My Story : Valentine’s Day has taken on a whole new meaning for my husband and me over the years. Our love story hasn’t been perfect, polished, or picture-perfect — it’s been real, raw, and built through seasons of growth, faith, and recovery. There were times when life tried to pull us in different directions, but we made a choice to keep choosing each other, even on the hard days.
This jar theme was inspired by that journey. The playful and cheerful design represents how love doesn’t always have to be serious to be strong. Sometimes love is laughing together after a long day, celebrating small victories, or simply sitting side by side knowing you made it through another chapter together.
Valentine’s Day for us isn’t just about romance — it’s about gratitude. Gratitude for second chances, for healing, for rebuilding trust, and for learning how to love each other in healthier and stronger ways. Every time I create something Valentine inspired, I think about how love is like crafting. It takes patience, time, attention, and sometimes fixing mistakes… but in the end, it becomes something beautiful and meaningful.
These jars were brought to life using my LokLik craft machine, designing everything inside Ideal Studio, and of course… a whole lot of patience while weeding (and laughing at myself along the way lol). Just like love, crafting these pieces takes dedication, care, and heart poured into every little detail.
These jars remind me to celebrate love in the everyday moments. Not just the big holidays, but the quiet coffee mornings, the late-night talks, the laughter, and the growth we’ve shared together. Our love story is still being written, and that’s my favorite part.

Here is my crafting-love week 3 entry 1.
Theme: Love In Everyday Life: Make Love Visible Everyday
IdeaStudio Link: See What I've Been Creating...
Story: For Week 3’s theme, Make Love Visible Everyday, I wanted to create something small but meaningful — something that didn’t just sit on a surface, but spoke to the heart every time you walked by. That’s how this little “More Self Love” envelope was born.
I filled it with tiny affirmation notes, each one a gentle reminder that love doesn’t only flow outward. It begins within us — in the way we speak to ourselves, in the grace we give ourselves, in the quiet moments when no one else is watching. As I designed each note, printed it, laminated it, and tucked it inside the envelope, it felt like I was crafting little seeds of kindness meant to bloom one day at a time.
This envelope hangs where I’ll see it daily, offering small invitations to pause, breathe, and choose love — not just for others, but for myself. Because self‑love is not selfish; it’s foundational. We can’t pour love into the world if we’re running on empty.
So this project is my reminder that making love visible isn’t always grand or elaborate. Sometimes it’s as simple as pulling out a tiny note that says, “You’re doing better than you think,” and letting that truth soften the day.
In this little envelope, love becomes visible in the most everyday way — through kindness, through intention, and through the courage to love ourselves just as deeply as we love others.

OMG! I absolutely love this!
Now I will say when I was in rehab in the process of my recovery journey, I hated and did not believe affirmations! But that’s part of addiction you can’t look at yourself in the mirror because you don’t wanna face yourself and the damage you’ve done! When I am here to say from personal experience! Affirmations were a small thing that saved my life. I wrote one every day on a sticky note and ask permission to put it around the mirror in the rehab bathroom that I had and they said, of course, and I repeated those to myself every day until I started to see the change and believe within myself and here I am today !
