Chocolate!

Chocolate! I here you say - Oh NO - .......Its OK - its not the edible kind.

I was very lucky at Christmas and got lots of crafty goodies, including these Darkroom Door stamps, which I have wanted for a while, and there are some great sentiments in the tin (the tin  is also fab).  I was stamping up some of the images the other night and thought they looked good as a background, and better still on pink cardstock with brown ink than black/white,  So .....I stamped again with brown ink on a slightly paler pink card for the main image and sentiment, both matted onto brown cardstock and then attached with 3Dfoam.
I am entering this card in:
  Sir Stampalot - Monochromatic
  Through the Craft Room Door - Monochromatic
  Heart Song Inspirations - Anything Goes
  Stamps RUs - What you got for Christmas
  Simon Says Stamp & Show - Something Old Something New (Ribbon is old)
  Sentimental Sundays - Anything Goes

Thats it for now and thanks for looking.

    A set of stamps I've wanted for sometime but for some reason never managed to buy as yet.
    Chocolate is always good as far as I'm concerned!!!
    Love your card.

    Really cool image!!! I love the window effect of this and how you have it slightly tilted to the side. A great eye-catching trick! The sentiment is fun too : )

    Thanks for sharing your creativity at the Simon Says Stamp & Show Challenge!!!
