Nothing's better than ...
When we love, we love deeply — we love more than … chocolate? cookies? coffee? cocktails? Whatever my tummy loves, I love you even more.
This is a Million Dollar Achiever set, designed by Connie Stewart, an American demonstrator that I have been following for years. Connie sure had some cute ideas for this set and I will be using it over and over in the coming months and years. I love it so much I got the bundle and I also got the translated French version because I know I will use it with the grandsons.
Here is a card I made with it. I will be posting a couple more in the next couple of days, to show you how versatile this set can be. I love the cute retro look of the coffee cups and if you know anything about me, you know that I cannot live without my coffee.
Cardbase is Basic Black 8-1/2” x 5-1/2 scored at 4-1/4”
First layer is Rococo Rose, cut at 5-1/4” x 4”;
Third layer is Whisper White cut at 5 x 3-3/4”.
I did the same layers for the inside.
Then I put two little strips of 1/4” x 3-3/4” for the shelves, cut out some of the chocolates after stamping them and coloured them with a variety of chocolate and caramel coloured Stampin’ Blends. I then mounted them on Stampin’ Dimensionals to give them a bit of depth on the shelf. The awning is 4” x 4”, scored at 2” and the Pink Pirouette and Basic Black strips are cut from scraps. To finish it off, I cut out the word Chocolate and adhere it to the awning.
If you love this bundle, order it while you can get 10% pairing it with the Love you more than set of dies. The dies have the words Love you more than, Cookies, Coffee, Chocolate (that you can use in French as well by cutting off the E) and Cocktails, in addition to the shapes for the coffee cut, cookie, cocktail and chocolates.
I always love chocolate and one of our favorite little treats is going to the Tanger Outlets and buying one or two of the specialty chocolates at Godiva. I used a piece of card stock for the awning and layered some punched out pieces with the word window punch.
