Eat Chocolate Treat Box

I am still playing with Eat Chocolate from the spring mini. This time I used my Big Shot and box#2 die that I cut out of chocolate chip (12x12 is needed). I stamped all over the cut out box with the chocolate bar image in chocolate chip, and then I assemble the box. I tied a red grosgrain ribbon loosely around it so it can slip on and off. I used markers to color in the stamp (chocolate chip, real red, daffodil delight, and old olive). After I stamped that on whisper white I used the matching decorative label punch to punch it out. I added an extra layer of red behind it. It is attached only to the ribbon with two glue dots. I added some of the tiny pearls for accent.

I finally used the striped ribbon and love it! The new set called Eat Chocolate in the spring mini is wonderful, too. I started with a pretty in pink base then added a layer of chocolate chip to it. Then I took a piece of very vanilla and ran it through my Big Shot using the square lattice embossing folder. Do you notice the oval imprint? I laid a wooden oval cut out bought at a local craft store under the folder before I ran it through my Big Shot (use one less plate and tab 1). I have done this before with a cardboard oval cut out I made but it seems that you can only those once or twice before they get too squished. I sponged the edge of the vanilla with pretty and pink and added 4 subtle brads using the mat pack. Then I used chocolate chip craft ink and embossed the stamped image. I embossed an extra piece of chocolate, cut it out, colored in the hearts with a pretty in pink marker, then used a dimensional to attach it over the original candy. I attached this to the chocolate chip layer. Finally, I added a row of red sticky strip and scrunched the ribbon across it. So cute!!
