I am so proud to be part of the Busy Beauties DT. Not only is this the most loving and supportive group of ladies, but also multi-talented! This week we are sponsoring the Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge. I have to admit I had not visited this challenge blog before, but now it is a favorite! More talent and inspiration is in store when you hop over to take a look!
Here is their fun sketch for this week:
And here is my card for the sketch. I did warn you about the chocolate, now didn't I? I love this tower of cakes! The image is Busy Beauties "Eat Cake" and I just had to color it in shades of chocolate. I wonder if that has anything to do with the bag of assorted Hershey's kisses I just bought? Hmmmm?
The cakes are colored in with all the shades of chocolate I could find in my Copics stash!! The luscious strawberries and pretty red bow provided the accent color. I have had some sheets of the chocolate icing scrapbook paper in my closet for years and this was the perfect time to break it out! Yummmm! The ribbon is a nice woven that had the perfect color combo. I love it when a card comes together!
Inside the card is a simple Mother's Day sentiment on a nice layer of chocolate icing!
I'm so glad you stopped by today and I hope you hop over to Sweet Sketch Wednesday to check out their creations and to play along.
