Hello! Today I would like to share another recipe for my Smash Book.
Elizabeth told me about this Recipe challenge over at Lasting Memories where you follow the following sketch and I really wanted to try it out.
I tried my best, but had difficulty following the sketch exactly. This is what I came up with:
You are probably thinking this looks nothing like the sketch! I think that too…but maybe it is more “inspired” by the sketch!! Anyway the recipe is a really good one. I make it all the time and everyone loves it. So if you want a quick, easy, pretty healthy chocolate slice give it a go!
I also have a “pretty in pink” Anya Princess card to share today for our
Carol, a good blogging friend of mine has a limited amount of Copics. She sent me a list of what she has got in her collection and I coloured my Princess Anya stamp only using the Copic colours she owns.
The colours are:
Hair: E37, E33, Y17, Y11 and Y02
Skin: E11, E21
Pinks: R46, RV34, RV23
Do you have a smallish Copic collection and want some help putting them together on an image? Why not email or leave a comment and I will see if I can colour something for you.
For this card I used papers from the Be Mine paper pad that is in my Valentine’s candy. I bought two pads at the time, one for me and one for the lucky winner! The papers are delicious! I have my sewing machine out again now and I am a bit fed up with the white stitching not really showing up on the cards so I have gone for dramatic black!
I would like to enter this card in two challenges:
I have used a sparkly ribbon buckle, some large rhinestones and glitter on the image
and
I have used a heart-shaped doily.
Sammi has an awesome collection of the Anya stamps in her store here.
They start at $8 each, which is so affordable. If you are after some new stamps to motivate your colouring head on over to Sammi and she can definitely help you out.
I hope you have a lovely weekend.
Thanks for stopping by!
