you are the sweetest.

Hi everyone! Well, another week has passed us by and we’re on the down-slide to the end of February already! I’m delighted to be back to share another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project with you today, created with the February 2023 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! February is the month of love so I made another one of my favorite cards – a chocolate bar card! Who doesn’t love chocolate?! This card was featured in a Splitcoast Stampers newsletter a while back HERE so I made one for my daughter-in-law’s birthday and thought it only fitting to make another one for Valentine’s Day!

I cut a 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base from CutCardStock Vanilla Bean Brown cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating patterned papers in the kit and some torn CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil cardstock. I added a sentiment from the sticker sheet and a large red heart gemstone from the upgrades with some looped Coats & Clark Metallic Gold sewing thread behind it, which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the floral patterned paper used on the front and CutCardStock Basis Red. The finishing touch was adding a sentiment from the sticker sheet.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
