Chocolate Wishes

This card was inspired by my youngest daughter's homemade chocolate birthday cake and I was sure glad there was some still left over after I stamped -- it sure made for a yummy midnight snack!

This is another of my sample cards made from Gina K's Stamps for a Cause 2007 set, Make a Wish.  I stamped the cake in Stampin' Up's basic brown on watercolor paper, omitting the stars at the top of the candles.  Instead, I gave the candles a little pink bling with some A Muse Creative Candy twinkle stickers in hot pink and watercolored the cake with Stampin' Up reinkers. 

The cake was punched with the Marvy Mega circle punch and framed with a Giga scallop punch of chocolate chip.  The scallops were each pierced from the reverse side.  It is mounted with dimensionals to the card.

Card base is chocolate chip, paper is Au Chocolat and ribbon is brown taffeta, all by Stampin' Up!  The sentiment was stamped in Tsukineko's VersaMagic Chalk Ink-Wheat.

I love this card! It makes me hungry just looking at it! Is the background paper Charbon? That is what I see in the catalog that looks similar- but I can't find the au chocolat!!!!

Ooooooh, I like this, Sharon! I love the pink candle glow and I think this is the best I've seen this paper look. Somehow it's just right on your card!
