The last of the Chocolate Box Cards


Well Thursday disappeared in a flash, didn't even get a chance to post.  

Today I have the last two of the chocolate boxes I made. I started with Stampin Up Pink Pirouette and Kaye's wonderful tutorial over at Craftmad.  Next I added this cute Blue Edge Owl Combo paper and the diamond patterned paper. I teamed the papers with this cute Owl image from Whimsy Stamps.  I am so happy with how she turned out.  I coloured her with my Copic Pens and finished with a touch of Kindy Glitz.  Then added a silver sticker sentiment.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Crafty Purple Frog - Birthdays ends 15th Sep
Hanna and Friends - #110 Little Gifts ends 15th Sep


I really like how this one turned out ....so much fun for a kids birthday.

This time I started with Stampin Up Orchid Opulence and teamed it up with Blue Combo papers - Past Spodia.  I layered the image up with some Stampin Up Pumpkin Pie.  Isn't this the cutest image ever he is from Stampfairy and bonus...he is free.  I coloured him with my Copics.  I am constantly amazed at how well I can match my limited Copic range to almost any papers I use.  Finished the card with this fun white sentiment sticker.

Well that is it for me this week.  I wish you all a wonderful weekend and terrific weather.
No huge plans for me for a change....just might quietly sneak in and do a little cardmaking. :-)

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
C.R.A.F.T - #119 Children ends 15th Sep
Crafting for all Seasons - #6 Birthday ends 21st Sep
Make it Monday - Always Anything Goes ends 12th Sep
