Awesome Boys Rule

1/7/24 Rising Star at A Place To Start!

Hi friends! I’m having a really hard time wrapping my head around how fast 2023 went! Wishing all my online friends a happy and prosperous 2024! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m delighted to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #78 – Anything Goes! I’ve made several of these chocolate bar cards and I always love how they turn out! I used a brown paper in the Keep It Simple Farmhouse Fall Collection because it was the perfect shade of brown for the chocolate bar. I also used a plaid paper and stickers from the Keep It Simple Boys Boys Boys Collection. This collection is on clearance and has been deeply discounted.

The 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. The chocolate bar was created using square punches and a brown print in the Keep It Simple Farmhouse Fall Collection. I ran a BR52 alcohol marker around the edge of each of the chocolate bar squares. The plaid layering panel and stickers are from the Keep It Simple Boys Boys Boys Collection and I used CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil cardstock for the wrapper under the plaid.

The inside panel was cut from Solar White and embellished with a leftover strip of the plaid paper used on the front. I stamped the sentiment from the Keep It Simple Birthday Sentiments stamp set in Memento Rich Cocoa ink and layered the panel on the brown paper used for the chocolate bar.
