Chocolatey Friends

Knowing that I am a bit (cough! OK, maybe more than a "bit") of a chocoholic, a lovely friend in the US sent me a stamp set called Eat Chocolate. Well, it is almost as yummy as the food group (LOL!) it's named after, so how could I possibly resist inking it up?



I really like the sketch over at Inkspirations this week, so I've used that for my card and just moved the ribbon. Doing those squares is a real challenge for me!


I used a digital paper for my background - well, just look at it! who could not?! - which went perfectly with early espresso and regal rose. I think I'll be making a few of these for all my choccie-loving friends! And this one might have to wing its way over to the States - I am soooooo lucky to have friends who know me so well!

Thanks for calling in. I hope you get some chocolatey goodness in your day.

Cheers
Kez

Edited to add:
I couldn't resist making up a little matching gift box - to put chocolates in, of course! -using my Box #2 die - here tis:

Ooh, this card is just lovely, good enough to eat, with all that chocolate. I love the papers and love the sentiment, it's so very true. Mmm, could do with some chocolate right now. Thanks for playing along with the Inkspiration challenge.

I am so glad that you are that friend who has chocolate, but tis a bit of a drive if I am desperate for chocolate - but the time i get there you would have eaten it all.
