Chocolate Makes Everything Better!

Hello and welcome back! Here's today's card:

This design was inspired by the challenges at Retro Rubber Challenge and Sketch Saturday.


This stamp set appeared in the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog, but for some reason, it has never seen ink! It's fun to try and fit the "candies" into the "box." I rotated the sketch to fit the candy box because it was bigger than I expected. And for a fun element, I die-cut a heart into the card front so that the box inside shows through. I was trying to figure out how to put that foil heart on the front so that you could open it to see the candy box, but I could never get enough edge to glue on. It's okay - this works too!


 I think my favorite thing is the "*not for actual consumption" stamp!

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
