Real Life VS Chocolate - Getting Cricky Simply Sunday "Fantasy Land" Challenge

-
 It's time for another Simply Sunday Challenge over at Getting Cricky.  The theme for today is "Fantasy Land".  I actually mixed and matched words from 5 different stamp sets to get the sayings for this card.  The versatility of these stamps is so great to allow me to do this.  Remember that Kristal donates a portion from the sale of EVERY stamp set to charity and that they are made in the USA.  Isn't that great?  You can click on the images below to view and purchase any of the sets that I used today.


Now I must admit that I struggled a bit with this week's theme.  I had a difficult time thinking in "Fantasy Land", but  think that the recipient of this card will really like it.  Some of he detail of the kisses and ribbon get lost in the photo, but it really looks neat in real life. Let's get started.

Here's a video that explains how I made this one.  I trust you will enjoy it.

Thanks for watching and have a great day!

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the l...
