To be in with a chance of winning the other prizes on offer, you need to take part in this fortnight's challenge over at the Colour Create Challenge Blog.

Now this fortnight's challenge ! The colour combo is red white/off white, chocolate and pink and here is the photo for your inspiration

The option extras are silver and hearts.

All the card I used is from Elzybells. Elizbeth has just started selling a co-ordinates range which includes card, ink and buttons and they are all the most delicious colours. I have used Sticky Toffee, Strawberry Fool and Vanilla Cupcake.

The large heart stamp on the card is a Magenta stamp I bought from e-bay which has been stamped in Strawberry Fool ink. The button is a Sticky Toffee button and I have added some paper string and beads from my stash. The smaller hearts (which are Hero Arts pattered hearts) have been stamped in Sticky Toffee and Strawberry Fool ink.

The ribbon is from my local market.

The chocolate pearls are from my stash.

The gift box has been made from a template from Splitcoasters and is a "2-5-7-10 Box"
I did actually make mine a little larger to fit more choccies in !!

I used an MS heart punch for the top edge and Strawberry Fool panel.

The heart is from a set called "Tags - Valentine II" sold at Elzybells. These stamps have been designed to fit the heart nesties and are fantastic - I can highly recommend them ! Unfortunately, my purse can't !!!

The ribbon is from my local market.

Phew ! I think that is everything - are you still here ???? !!!

The DT's cards are amazing this week and if you look closely, we have a very special guest joining us too ! None other than the amazing TARA who started off this fantastic challenge blog for us all. So lovely to have you back kiddo !!!

We look forward to seeing you joining us in our Birthday celebrations.

Have a great day !
