Chocolate

Funny thing: I really DO NOT Like chocolate! 
At least not plain chocolate, most chocolate candies, chocolate flavor. 
Okay I think you get what I am saying. 
However, I do like chocolate covered coconut and chocolate chips in ice cream.
Anyway, here is today's card for the MFT Sketch 120 challenge.
I used the new free scoop stamp set with this chocolate sentiment image. I also used the Blueprint 2 die to make the left border. I added some burlap underneath and added some brown pearls and twine for embellies.
Here is the sketch:

Sweet Stamps Technique Challenge


Our monthly technique challenge at Sweet Stamps is to stamp your own background paper.
I actually stippled my background paper.
I took a cotton ball soaked with alcohol, added a few drops of ink and dabbed some glossy white card stock. For the coral paper I swirled the cotton ball to get a deeper look.
The image is a silhouette stamp from Sweet Stamps called: Mums the Word (6001-G)
I colored the rubber stamp with markers and then stamped it on white glossy card stock.
Check out our blog for more inspiration from the team!
