Hand over the Chocolate

Hope everyone is having a fabulous Saturday. Jumping in for a quick post to display my card I finished last night. I want to enter another card into the Fussy and Fancy Challenge blog where the theme has been chocolate.

One of my girlfriends gave me this great die cut from Sizzix called Flagpole w/Lantern & Sign, so I wanted to try it out. I remembered I had this sentiment, "Hand over the Chocolate.." so I thought I would come up with a card using these items.

Very simple, but I like it! I think I will put a Valentine sentiment inside and use it for one of my Valentine cards.

There are a few other "Anything Goes" challenges going on so I think I will also enter a few of them as well:

• 613 Create - #53 Anything Goes
• Cheery Lynn - Anything Goes
• Scribble & Scrap #8 Anything Goes
• Ends Jan 4 - Hiding in my Craftroom - Anything but Holiday
• Ends Jan 4 - #301 Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes
• Ends Jan 7 - Crafty Creations - #253 Anything Goes 

Well that is it for now. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend.

I Love Chocolate

Happy Tuesday! Well I don't typically post twice in one day, but I just finished this card I have been working on so I wanted to share. I won this digi stamp from Fresh Brewed Designs and when I saw the current challenge they are hosting, I knew exactly what I would do.

I have this great rubber stamp that I have used for many occasions. It is a friendship stamp, but can work for birthday's or any type of celebration.

The challenge is over at Fussy and Fancy and the theme is CHOCOLATE. I have recently become acquainted with Fresh Brewed Designs and just love their stamps, so much that I applied to be on their Design Team. I am currently on 3 teams and am looking to take on 2 more. I have one in the works, that I hope to announce early next year and this one. I had applied to be on Kenny K's team, but was not chosen. A little disappointed, but that is OK. There are so many talented card makers out there, so I completely understand. I really like his images as well, so I am sure I will be playing along to perfect my card making talent and hopefully try again in the future.

Here is a closer look at the digi image from FBD and my rubber stamp sentiment is from Stampendous. I used paper from my stash and made flowers using my new Die-namics die cut that I purchased from MFT stamps.

It is a tri-fold card and definitely fits the CHOCOLATE theme. What do you think?

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
