CC.com Chocolatier Jan. 2011 Project

I'm on CropChocolate.com's Design Team, they call us "Chocolatiers". I like it, it's a fun & cute name. Our task for January was to create a project with the theme "Love" using product that CropChocolate.com sells. I used my Echo Park Paper Company's Be Mine Collection, here's what I came up with:

Recipe:
light grey cardstock for card base, 8 1/2" by 5 1/2" folded in half to make an A2 sized card
Pink stripe pattern(Echo Park Be Mine Collection) cut at 4" by 5 1/4"
Polka Dot pattern(Echo Park Be Mine Collection) cut at 2" by 4"
*The stripes are centered on the light grey cardstock, the strip of polka dots, I placed about 1/4" up from the bottom edge of the striped paper.

The Be Mine graphic is a cardstock sticker from the Be Mine Collection, as are the 2 tickets behind it. I mounted them on scrap cardstock & then completely trimmed them down. The ribbons are just scraps I had that I folded in half & glued down. With these embellishments, I just layered them as to how I liked them and used my ATG gun and pop dots to adhere them.

I also used some Black Diamond Stickles on the black polka dots of the paper to give it a little sparkle, and also took my Stardust Gelly Roll pen by Sakura and traced over all the Be Mine & the black flourishes too. I couldn't get any of the sparkle to show up very well, but it's there!

Hope you like it! I'm off to play with some more scrappy stuff since my munchkin isn't home right now!

Happy Crafting!

Growing in Unity Blog Hop

Hi! Thanks for joining us for the GIU blog hop, if you got here from Amy 's blog then you're in the right spot. This is going up a bit late as I'm having major pc issues! So for the hop today, I'm showing you my massive project that I'm working on. I decided to make recipe books for a few people for Christmas and so I'm starting now. I'm using the Chilled Strawberry Soup set, I love it, it's super cute! I'm doing a few different cards into a single set. The set I'm currently working on use the strawberry, oven mitt and the heart.  I think that I'll end up with 20 or 30 of each card type per set. Such a huge undertaking. :-)  I hope you liked my project, don't forget to leave a comment, 2 commentators from the hop will win some Unity stamps. Thanks for stopping by, the next blog on the hop is Carisa .  Brittany

Welcome to the Card & Invitation Blog Hop hosted by Erica at My Cricut Craft Room. If you're just stumbling upon my blog start at the beginning { HERE }, this will get you to Erica's blog and let you know all the requirements for the blog hop candy. Here we go! So I'm completely unsure what I'm using this card for yet, but I like it. It measures 4" x 8". The base is a die cut sheet from the 8 x 8 pack of patterned paper from the Dilly Dally line by Making Memories. The plaid & butterfly print are also from that line, I manipulated a bracket shape on my Gypsy so that it would mimic the shape. Not sure which cartridge it ended up being off of. The ribbon is by Making Memories also it's from a vintage line, grosgrain with a ruffled edge. The yellow flower is a sticker from the Making Memories Chloe's Closet line and the stick pins are from that line also. The "Live. Laugh. Love." stamp on the bottom right corner is from My Pink Stampe
