Is it Sunday again already???

I'm a bit calendar challenged this week! We had Thursday & Friday off from school due to the FRIGID temps & wind chills, so now I'm all mixed up!! Thank goodness for the High Hopes Sunday challenges, or I wouldn't know WHAT day it is!

This week's challenge is to make a masculine-ish card.......no flowers!!! I say "ish" because let's face it.....mine is a bit pinker than it should be for a man!



I just had to use my Sow Soo-eet Piggy.....and the cute little bon bon. I colored them with my Prismas & gamsol, & made the piggy 3D by stamping parts of him two or three times. Here's a side view so you can see the layers:



I once again used the SCS sketch challenge from this week, only this time I flipped it so it would work with the wider image. The designer papers are Basic Grey Blush, paired with Riding Hood Red, my all time favorite SU color!! I will need to stock up on this color before it vanishes this fall!! After clear embossing the chocolates, I cut them out & stuck them in the corner around the twine. I added some curly doo-dads which I have been seeing everywhere lately. I wish I could give credit to someone for coming up with this cute little embellishment, but seriously I have no idea who started it!! Now that I look at the picture, it kind of looks like a chocolate spider......lol!



Here is the inside......the sentiment & the lips are both clear embossed....you may need to click on the picture to see it....although I don't think you can see how shiny the lips are no matter how many times you click!! Trust me, they're shiny!! I added another chocolate ....clear embossed, of course....to the bottom corner.



Well I wish I could say this Valentine is going to my hubby......but we don't exchange anything for Valentines....not even cards. Nope, this one will be going on Ebay. I've slowly been getting back into listing, after taking about a month off. It was a bit slow for me before & during the holidays so we'll see how it goes.....you can click HERE to see my auctions....there aren't many but I'm trying!! It actually takes a bit of time to get an auction listed, & time is something I haven't had much of lately!!

Be sure to check out all the other Divas' creations HERE.....they are magnificent!! And if you'd like to play along, be sure to leave a comment with a link to your card.....you could win some goodies!!

Thanks for stopping by, & enjoy the rest of your weekend!!!
