Love Chocolate!

Inspiration by Christi Waite

Hi there!  Hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend.  It was great to spend time with family and getting my "baby fix" by holding my month old grandson!  But let's get down to business, shall we? The above card was showcased for Valentine's Day at my Card Buffet.  It could also be used for an anniversary or just to let someone know that you love them.  The sentiment is from the Lovely Amazing You stamp set by Stampin' Up!  The "bonbons" were made with the 1-1/2" Circle punch, then embossed with the retired Square Lattice embossing folder. Other punches used were the Heart Border punch and the Cupcake Builder punch (for the cherries).

That's all for today.  Must run some errands.  Have a great day and thank you for peeking in today!

Wishing You a Doggone Happy New Year!

Hi there and Happy New Year!  Hope you had a good time ringing in the New Year...nothing too crazy, though.  My granddog, Rocky, was freaking out with the fireworks.  Whenever he heard them, he'd stand by the front door and bark.  Such a good dog protecting me!  Speaking of dog, I have a dog card for you today.  (How about that segue?)  A similar card was given to me by a fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and friend, Diane Mikles.  The Top Note die was used as a backdrop, which was layered onto a background stamped with the bone image from Hot Diggity Dog.  His head and ears were made using the Decorative Label punch.  A combination of circle and heart punches were used for his face.  The final touch was a sentiment from the Lovely Amazing You set. 

That's it for today.  Have a great weekend and thank you so much for stopping in for a visit!
