A Little Yummy...

Some more packages were waiting for me at the post office today, one of which contained my labels one nesties.....Yippeee!! So I set to work straight away and made a card and a matching chocolate bar holder (don't really know what else to call it!)

The theme this week on Stamp Something is chocolate and I think (hopefully) I have just made these in time for the challenge, and on Papertake this week you had to make a matching set, so these fit the bill for that too!!

I was lucky enough to win this SU set called Yummy from Jeanette.... these stamps are the first SU products I have and I was very impressed with the quality. Unfortunately my budget at the moment doesn't stretch that far.....so many things I want, but so little money..... so I will have to wait a while before I can get some more SU stash.


Anyway, back to the matter in hand.... The yummy set of stamps was perfect for this and I used my whispers pens to ink the stamps. The designer paper is dovecraft from the aquamarine range and the aqua coloured paper is just plain paper that I got when I started crafting (but have never used!)

I designed the chocolate bar holder myself, although I'm sure there are many out there that are similar or better! To make the chocolate look a bit more attractive I wrapped it in designer paper so that it all co-ordinates.

For the card I used my nesties, but I had to turn the second layer from the top as I didn't have enough DP left to cut the next largest nestie.... well we do have to improvise from time to time!!! I finiahed the card off with a small white bow and a heart charm. Thanks for looking x
