Who wouldn’t be inspired by chocolate! When I saw this inspiration photo for The Pink Elephant challenge I had to try the challenge.
Yum, yum!! I picked another sketch from Make My Monday to help me in my quest to get better at CAS cards
So here is my card for today
I designed the card using CAP so I could keep to one layer and keep the costs down! I used pearlescent card and then rounded the card corners and paper cormers. I colour matched all the elements to the inspiration photo. I added a pink lace border to echo the doily in the photo. I cut out a small section of the sprinkles on chocolate to make the background paper- enlarged it and made it slightly transparent. I then selected a section of the photoand acolour matched a frame around the outside to get the 3 squares. I added the 3 butterfly embellishments. I then copied a section of chocolate with the pink drizzles, enlarged it and made it into a heart shape.
I added a couple of real embellishments to make it pop! I added glossy accents to the heart and 4 gems. To me it is a CAS card but I’ll probably find it isn’t!!
I would like to enter the following challenges
The Pink Elephant– inspiration photo (see top of post)
Make My Monday– CAS sketch (see top of post)
Creative Creations Challenge– Keep it simple

lovely card jellie thanks for playing with us at Creative Creations Challenges this week.
I love this card, Jellie! It’s so different, and what a great inspiration! Those choccies look yummy. Great colour combination. What a great idea using Craft Artist to keep the layers (and cost) down – it looks incredibly 3-dimensional. I’ve got Craft Artist and really should use it more than I do.
