Say it with…Chocolate!
So…who is up for a chocolate challenge? Interpret it anyone you like – either using the colours of chocolate, or like I did…using chocolates you can eat!
(tag – ac066)
I made a little folder/box to hold a yummy love heart chocolate. There is nothing better than saying thank you with some chocolate, in my opinion. I white heat embossed some stamps from the Love Birds set. Oh and I got all inky with distress inks as well.
I didn’t know how to close it – I tried ribbon and twine, but they all covered up the sentiment so in the end I went with a clear band made from a cello bag. Not sure I like it, but it was the best I could come up with.
And I hear you say…where is the chocolate?? Well here it is…but probably not for long!
Supplies:
Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps Love Birds stamp set
Ink: Distress Inks – Wild Honey, Scattered Straw, Spiced Marmalade and Fired Brick, Versamark watermark ink
Card: X-Press It Blending card, White bazzill
Other Supplies: Blending tool, WRMK Corner Chomper, HA white embossing powder – ultra fine, heat gun, clear cello bag, Wonder tape, Martha Stewart score board, chocolate, AnnaBelle Stamps 3mm silver metallic sprinkles, Glossy Accents (to adhere sprinkles), foam dimensionals
