Simple Chocolate Card

Here is a quick and easy card using the Eat Chocolate Stamp set. I started with Pretty in Pink and Chocolate chip... I just LOVE these colors together...especially for Valentines! I embossed the piece of Chocolate chip using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder in my Big Shot so give some fun texture to the simple card. Both of the sentiments I used are on the same stamp so I used markers to color it, first not coloring the "...I'm that friend" portion to stamp the top, then again, stamping just the "...I'm that friend" portion and punching it out with the word window punch. I thought it might look nice to separate them a little more than they are on the stamp.
I also used some crumb cake seam binding ribbon to attach the sentiment and add some sweetness to the card!

Eat Chocolate

At long last I am sharing some new stuff with you! I meant to post these days ago but the time has gotten away from me this week! Here's a fun card I made using the new Eat Chocolate set from the 2011 Occasions Mini catalog. I made this cute background by stamping the "so much Chocolate, so little time" stamp randomly over a piece of Crumb Cake card stock using early espresso ink. The main image I stamped by carefully coloring it with the brush ends of the markers and stamping it onto whisper white cardstock. Then I used a glue pen and some glitter to make it sparkly. Here's a close up-- can you see the glitter? It's kind of hard to see in the photo but it's super cute in person.


I punched out the image using the Decorative Label punch (this is in the new mini again so if you didn't get a chance to order it from the holiday one, you still can!)

This card also uses some of the seam binding ribbon. I ordered a few colors of this and LOVED it so I decided to do a share of it. Let me know if you're interested in participating in the share. This ribbon is really thin and sheer... the images in the catalog don't do it justice at all.

Hope you enjoyed this card... I think it would make a great Valentine!
