Like a Box of Chocolates

Hello there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


I was cleaning out a notebook and found a page I'd saved from a Paper Craft Magazine.

There was a card that had caught my eye and I'd kept that page so I could CASE it.

I decided it would be perfect for Joanna's Inchie Challenge at CAS Mix Up.

I stamped the crosshatch design on a strip of Chocolate Chip cardstock and
heat embossed it.  My one inch square punch assured that my pieces were
exactly one inch.  A corner rounder punch gave the pieces a more realistic look.

The other two pieces were punched out and dry embossed.  Then I sponged a little
copper Delicata ink on the ridges.

The Sending is three die cut layers.

I think I'll go see if I can find a piece of real chocolate.

Oh, and the challenge is open until the 24th.


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

    Guess what I did before writing this, Bonnie. I went to get some chocolate! Now I'm writing this while having a piece. ;-P
    Your chocolate inchies card looks so cute and the sentiment is perfect. The white heat-embossing and the sponging with copper ink make the chocolate look so realistic and yummy!

    What a clever way to do these chocolates! I have a friend who is a chocoholic so am going to CASE every "inch" of this for her next card.

    How yummy Bonnie, the perfect thing to make using inchies and especially with the rounded corners. I like my chocolates with some caramel in the middle please...lol. I love the large die cut with the stamped part to make that great sentiment too. x
