Chocolately Goodness & Blog Candy

These are my 2 favorite projects I created over the weekend for the Crop Chocolate Chocolatier Crop. The box has Hershey's Nugget candy in there......you measure out the simple box to fit it out of simple cardstock. The "clear cellophane" was cut from a package of stickers I used for part of the decorating! It's made with goodies from the Sabrina line from Making Memories. The LO is made from the new Fancy Pants Like Father Like Son line. Wow am I in love with this set!! The papers, letters, journal box and "Rock Star" all came from the set! The crop was a lot of fun, and hey, anything that gets you creating is a good thing!! Still waiting to see if any prizes are coming my way.....but in the mean time..................
There is a prize coming TCEE's way! She was the random draw winner of my Red, White and Blue Blog candy!!! Those goodies will be on their way shortly!! Thanks for playing, and I'll be back soon with more sketch posts!!

Awesome sketches!!

I've never been big on sketches, kind of do my own thing, but I think it's always good to try new things!! The "You're a Star" card is (obviously) based on this sketch. Every week, Jen del Muro posts a SFYTT (Sketch For You To Try) and gives you awesome examples, AND there are prizes! I think I might have found a new love for sketches......'cause who doesn't love prizes??

And as for prizes....if you leave a comment on this post.....you will have a chance to win some of your own Red, White and Blue blog candy! Thought it would be fun to "start out with a bang" here on my new blog! Hope you enjoy the sketch, the "eye candy", and who knows....maybe some "blog candy"!!
