More Than Chocolate

While playing with my Jar of Love and Balloon Builders stamps the thought of Malted Milk Balls popped into my head.  So I decided to pop some into the jars!

I stamped them with Chocolate Chip and Soft Suede using the two round stamps from Balloon Builders.  Then I started thinking of what I would put with them and found my Lovely Amazing You stamp set.  With fingers crossed I looked in my Stampin' Up! store and find the set is still available.  The set is not in the Annual Catalog, but you can still order it.  Yayyy!


Recipe:

Chocolate Chip 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4"
Regals Designer Series Paper Stripes (Chocolate Chip) 4" x 1 1/2"


Stamp the jars with Memento Black and then fill them with "malted milk balls".  You could also make them colors instead, maybe all red for Cinnamon Balls, or other favorite round candy.  Of course you'd need a different stamp to go with it, since it's not CHOCOLATE!  ha ha ha


Inside I stamped "You're So Sweet" from Mixed Drinks.  Those were the words I wanted, so I was so happy to find them in this set!


Pop up the jars with Stampin' Dimensionals, add a bow from Jar of Love and you're all set!

Love You More Than Chocolate

One of our newest Photopolymer stamp sets is Lovely Amazing You and it was love at first sight when I saw the "love you more than chocolate" stamp!  I knew there was a perfect use for this one and could hardly wait to use it!

I want to show you how something as simple as a little bow made out of Thick Baker's Twine can make the card completely different. 

Here is the card I made and when I was ready to photograph it and post it, I realized it was missing something.


So, I added this little bit of Strawberry Slush and I couldn't believe how much difference it made.  What do you think?
 

Recipe:

Pistachio Pudding Base:  8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4" - I used this "minty" color for a chocolate / mint candy look
Chocolate Chip:  5" x 3 3/4"
Irresistibly Yours 4 3/4" x 3 1/2"
Chocolate Chip (chocolate bar): 2 1/2" x 2 1/4"
Chocolate Chip (chocolate bits):  1" squares cut in half

Sponge the edges of all the chocolate pieces with Chocolate Chip ink
Sponge over the Irresistibly Yours with Chocolate Chip, fading it as you go up.

Stamp the sentiment with (wait for it) ... Chocolate Chip Ink on Whisper White card stock
Die cut the sentiment with the Circles Framelits - the fifth one up from the smallest
Punch a piece of Chocolate Chip card stock with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch
Pop up the circles with Stampin' Dimensionals

I'll bet you have someone special in mind to give this sentiment to.  I know I do and it will be going there very soon!

Thank you for looking in today!  Happy Saturday!
