SNEAKY CHOCOLATE CARD

I recently watched a video from Erica Cerwin (Pink Buckaroo). She was making a Double Slider Card, using the Campology Stamp Set.

It was great to be reminded about this card technique – I haven’t made one in years!

Erica used a trail mix sachet in her card – I’m much older and will be using chocolate.

And, I knew that I had at least one block of Lindt chocolate in the pantry – so I knew what to do!

mmm … this is great way to give someone special chocolate!

We all know that chocolate – good chocolate – is a great way to celebrate and has health benefits – it’s true!

The NOTHING’S BETTER THAN STAMP SET and coordinating dies were absolutely perfect for this project.

The REAL RED CARDSTOCK matched the Lindt packaging perfectly.

I need to make lots more double slider cards.

What do you think? Would you like this as a gift?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

Here is the card I made, using the STAMPARATUS to position the stamps.

And, who wouldn’t love a blingy banana!

This was such a fun card to make – I love all the bright colours.

THE GIFT OF GIVING

I found a box of yummy looking petit fours and new I could make a lovely gift box to turn it into a gift for someone special.

Mr Kipling French Fancies

This is one of four different gift boxes I made on the weekend.

Today, my eldest daughter asked if I had something she could give to her boss because she has been so thoughtful and supportive – of course, I have something – silly question.

I teamed the gorgeous PEONY GARDEN DESIGNER SERIES PAPER with Petal Pink cardstock to make the box.

Then it was time to use the PEONY DIES to cut three complete flowers in vellum. These were each coloured using PETAL PINK, GRAY GRANITE and SMOKY SLATE BLENDS.

The ribbon is from the just released AUGUST THROUGH DECEMBER MINI CATALOGUE. It is the 1.5″ METALLIC MESH RIBBON – it is, oh, so pretty.

Finally, the greeting is from the TASTEFUL TOUCHES STAMP SET and is cut using the TASTEFUL LABELS DIES.

THREE FLOWERS – THREE DIFFERENT COLOURS
AND, LOTS OF WINK OF STELLA
AND, LOTS OF TASTY TREATS!

I hope that Ashleigh’s boss likes her gift.

Totally happy with this project – what do you think?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping and gift box making!
