....oh my word, if there's ONE treat that I go absolutely nutsy over, it's chocolate covered strawberries. Mmmmmmm, so good! Well, Michelle sent me this ADORABLE new Sweet Chocolate set from My Cute Stamps and I couldn't wait to play...especially with this chocolate strawberry stamp. She also sent me some Espresso Pearls, which were just perfect (and fun!) for the chocolate.
Today's CCEE Challenge from Charlene is an inspiration challenge using photos from the Imagekind site. I chose this picture as my inspiration:
For my card I put the embossed polka dot panel on foam tape, the square strawberry panel up on a second layer, and a third strawberry was cut out and put up on a third layer. I threaded some green waxed thread through the large square panel and stamped some extra hearts in the corners in Memento Cocoa. The Sweet Wishes sentiment is stamped in Versamagic Spanish Olive. The hearts, strawberries, and leaves were colored with Copics.
Here's the inside:
Here's a close-up of the Espresso Pearls. Love this stuff!
Thanks for stopping by!
