I was playing around with my stamps (I love when I get time to do that) and came up with this card that just happens to fit the Eclipse challenge too…lol….Remember you still have a few more days to post your links!

My card: This one depicts my love affair with…well you know…chocolate!

Images used: Love Bites, Got Chocolate?           Techniques: Shaving Cream on 2nd mat, forget the name of the one on the base.               Colors: Copics/Triart            Extras: Cookie stickers, super fine glitter (found at the DOLLAR store!!)             Eclipse challenge options: 2, 3 and  4
Click the image for a larger view, you can really see the sparkle in this one!

I combined number 2 and 4-Conflict between hot and cold, and images that depict hot and cold-I used a cup cake which is baked, and chocolate which is melted-so hot…lol…and  blues and browns papers for the cool….For number 3-I used glitter on the cupcake and some of the chocolate. (I only did part of that option…hmmm…wonder if I could add some flocking…lol)

I hope I’ve inspired you to create something for this challenge too! You can link your SCS gallery post if you don’t have a blog. I hope I’ve answered all the questions I’ve received…grin….

Stamp sets used: Heart  Strings, and Got Chocolate?       Paper: plain white CS, a smidgen of Cosmo Crikett-Love Notes         Colors: Triart and Copics          Extras; red ribbon-JoAnns Etc, liquid glass (on hearts, and shine on frosting)

SOOO easy to make this little card.

-card base is standard A2 size

-cut a white mat 3.5 ” wide x4.25 ” long.  Cut this piece so you have one piece that is 2×3.5″ for the top, and use the other piece for the bottom panel

-punch out, or trace and cut out the file tag, and hand write the ‘To Do’ with black marker

-ink all the edges of the cs and card base with Cat’s Eye inks (love these little ink pads) in Dark Brown, and Chestnut Roan

-stamp the  saying on top panel, add  ribbon

-stamp the cupcake from the chocolate set, and then stamp the single heart and the swish from the heart strings set coming out from the cupcake (it would be fun to stamp again on white cs, color and  cut out then layer these peices with a pop dot! )

-color image with triart and copics (they play really well together!); match your heart color to your ribbon color

-layer the bottom panel on dp mat

- add liquid glass stuff to give it a nice shine

-let dry  and add to card base

-now send to one of your chocolate loving gfs!!

tfti!
