Our Creative Corner Sketch Challenge & Stamp Something - Something Chocolate


The thought of anything chocolate gets me going, however in this case it's just the colour! I did have some backing paper from a magazine with chocolates on, but when I came to use it, I thought it a bit naff, so I just used the colours as inspiration instead.
The sketch is from Our Creative Corner this week; I thought that it might prove a little tricky, but I enjoyed doing it nevertheless.
The flowers are from a Sizzix die and I experimented with folding one up to make a bud. The dress is made from shrink plastic, stamped with timber brown Stazon. The ribbon was given to me by someone who knew I'd be able to use it for something or other. I think it's really pretty, it would have been such a pity if it had been thrown away with the gift wrapping paper!
The sentiment reads 'Dreams really do come true' ... Let's hope so!
