Hand Over the Chocolate!
Can you believe that I created this card WITHOUT eating chocolate? I know!!! Shock huh? Chocolate and I used to be the best of friends...until...I discovered that my so called friend had been sabotaging my weight loss goals! Well, to be perfectly honest, my lack of weight loss goals...
It's now been about 6 weeks since I've started eating 'clean.' That's what they call it these days...no processed foods filled with sugar and words I can not pronounce. I NEVER thought I'd be able to give up my sweetest, most treasured friend - er - chocolate. BIG change!!! Ya know...I feel tons better :) Thank you for empowering me, God ♥
Today's project is a shaped card using Regina's Keep Calm and...Word Shaped Card Template - Cutting File. Of course the chocolate sentiment that comes with the file stood out to me, and I remembered I had this adorable digi from Mo, HERE - perfect!
Challenges Entered:
Joanna Sheen Challenge - Girls Girls Girls
The Squirrel and the Fox - Here Come the Girls
The image is colored with copics: Hair - E37 E35 E34 YR21 YR20; Skin - E11 E00 E000; Overalls - B97 B95 B93 B91 B0000; Pinks - R85 R83 R81 RV00; Chocolate - E18 E17 E15 E13.
I designed this card in my Silhouette Software which works out so well for sizing and previewing before cutting out! The word "Calm" has a pattern overlay which I then covered with Glossy Accents. The burlap is also a pattern in the Silhouette Software.
If you haven't already, go check out The Cutting Cafe! Regina has tons of cute cutting files at very reasonable prices :)
So happy you've stopped by... I hope to see you again soon!!!
May God bless you, keep you and comfort your soul~

This card is adorable! I just love the image and the whole thing! Do you have the Designers Edition for your Silhouette? I have the Silhouette Portrait and was wondering how the Designer's Edition works with Regina's files
Hi Lori, what a little sweetheart I love how youve coloured her with all that chocolate around the face. hugs Shirleyxxxxx
