Love You More Than Chocolate Card

My Valentine Card with Chocolates on it.
Love You More Than Chocolate Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Love you More Than Chocolate Card using the Nothing’s Better Than Stamp Set and matching Love You More Than Dies by Stampin’ Up! I have been meaning to play with this set and thought it would be perfect for a Valentine’s Day card!

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided that I wanted to go with Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Real Red for my colour scheme since they reminded me of a box of chocolates. 

I love how fun it is to replace the word “Chocolate” with the stamped image of the chocolates. Giving the receiver a subtle hint of what the card is all about. And just in case they miss that, I stamped in Early Expresso the word Chocolate and the outline of the chocolates on the Crumb Cake piece. For the stamped chocolates on the Basic White Card Stock, I used two-step stamping before die cutting them to create depth and dimension with Early Espresso for the outline and Crumb Cake for the silhouette.

To tie in the Real Red Designer Series Paper from the Regals Pack, I used Real Red for my hearts and Red Rhinestones to add sparkle. The stitched hearts were from the Give It a Whirl Dies. A favourite of mine for those little accents!
