Hello - nothing for weeks and then 2 posts! Well I had to be quick with this one as I am just squeezing in with Artistic Outpost's September Show us Your Art. I've had these bits on my desk just waiting to be put together, but couldn't remember where I put my stash of corrugated card when I did my craftroom revamp, fortunately a parcel arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait to open it so I could have the box and finish the card!
I am also entering this at:
Vintage Stamping Challenge - Tic Tac Toe (top line - Twine (on the little tag), Vintage tones and people).
Thanks for visiting, I do appreciate it,
Avril xx

Fabulous! Love the different textures on those layers, the perfect backdrop for that gorgeous boy!
Wonderful piece and I love the idea of chocolate! Hugs, Valerie
Losing your corrugated Avril - how awful !! But I think mu hubby would be more than a little pleased if mine disappeared. So pleased you had a parcel to enable you to make this lovely creation.

Terrific layers and great textures from the packaging. I think it would take years for me to loose all mine that I have hidden away!

Oh I love this, so creative Avril.....as for the missing card, why is it every time we clear up or sort out, we can never find things...haha....strange days.....have a nice day...xx
Completely in love with this, Avril - the shabby chic layers and the fabulous shades of chocolaty coffee browns - brilliant use of the AO image... altogether a delight.

Fabulous little project Avril ..... we all need a little bit of chocolate now and then :) xx
This is fab Avril, love all the layers and textures, my motto is to never tidy up as things disappear and are never seen again!

Greetings, Alie
Fun and beautifully created. The chocolate colour is perfect.

Fabulous creation dear Avril. I like how you combined all these different papers and the nice little buttons. I live in Germany next to the dutch border and we buy Van Houten Cocoa for our cakes or to make a strong drink chocolate.
Nice idea to use this old advertising from Van Houten. Thanks for stopping at my blog and your dear comment.
All the best to you and your loved ones.
Greetings

i love this avril - great textures and colour combo sorry for my absence lately - so much going on but think i'm back again! hugs Judith x
Gorgeous tag! Love the distressed/grungy look and Vintage feel of the tag as well as that lovely stamped image. Thank you so much for playing our Tic Tac Toe game this month at Vintage Stamping Challenges.
Lovely piece. Waiting for the box made me chuckle. Hugz
Beautiful make, Avril. I like the layers you have created behind image and colors are so perfect for this vintage card. Love love love!
I've been craving for chocolate the whole day, this surely did not help, lol. But it's a beautiful vintage design. I love doing vintage and masculine, but find it hard to combine the two. This looks lovely.
Wonderful Avril -- what a great job you did designing this - I could never put this many things together and have it look good and your card sure does look good!

This looks super duper Avril. What are you like I can picture you tearing at the parcel just to get to the corrugated.
Also thanks for sharing with us at VSC.

The colours are so perfect for the theme of the stamp and great textures.
I just love that you tore in that box to give you some corrugated cardboard to create with!
