More than Chocolate

Hi friends!  Another week has flown by and it's already time for a new Mojo Monday sketch!  And since it's the first week of a brand new month, than means there are prizes up for grabs if you play along with this week's Mojo Monday sketch!


My card is a sneak peek at the brand new Chocolate set and word die that will be releasing this Friday from Verve. {For another sneak peek card click here.}  I made the card I'm sharing today a couple weeks ago for Mark's birthday, since he used to tease me about my love affair with chocolate. I wrote "and that's a whole lot" as the inside sentiment.   {grin}

The I love you more than sentiment is stamped inside the shaker which I made with classic and pinking circle nestabilities and some sequins from the Signature Sequin Mix.  I accented with a bit of liquid pearls around the circle, then die cut the Chocolate Word Die and layered it below.  The chocolate hearts are embossed tone on tone on chocolate chip cardstock, then hand trimmed and I stamped and embossed the dripping chocolate border stamp tone on tone as well.  I finished off with a hearts embossed card base, a few rounded corners and some lightly sponged edges.

In other news, Verve's restocking shipment arrived over the weekend, so I've added 44 out of stock products back into inventory and extended our 20% off all stamps sale through March 15!  Hooray!
