C4CC#10 - My Favorite Cocoa

The challenge over at the Crazy4Cocoa blog this week is to use your favorite Cocoa image! My absolute favorite is Cocoa's Santa hat, but I'm taking a break from Christmas cards for a while, so I'm using another favorite called Cocoa's Chocolates . He also comes in a colored version so you can save time coloring your image. I colored the image with Copics and lightly sponged with Memento Desert Sand ink, while it was still in the Blossom die. The bottom blossom diecut is a piece of kraft cardstock, stamped with a basket weave pattern in Chocolate Chip ink. The dp is SU! sahara sand and the wide satin ribbon is SU! retired. The narrow ribbon was from my stash. The sentiment panel was done with an Inkadinkado stamper in Chocolate Chip ink and SU! oval punches. There's a little dab of Glossy Accents on those 3 cherries and the tiny heart on the sentiment panel and some stickles on the candy icing. Every time I look at this card I get hungry for chocolate! Small wonder this Cocoa image is a favorite of mine eh? :)
If you have any Cocoa images, it's time to get 'em out and ink 'em up! Come join us each week for a chance to win free images at the end of the month! Please double check the rules, as you must use a Cocoa image to play along!
We're dealing with another bad weather system that may cause power outages with ice storms, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we'll get through this without too much drama! Take care and thanks so much for stopping by! It's always great to see you here:)

Adorable choice for your favorite, Carol! Hope I can get up to L&L soon for some new stamps. I had to laugh at you choice of terms. Drama is a good way of putting it.

Carol, I love your awesome ribbon treatment..caught my eye immediately. Great choice. Also, the blossom die with the basketweave is really adorable. What a wonderful creation!

Ooh, I hope your power doesn't go. That is a miserable thing. We are supposed to have bad weather tonight..not snow, but storms. That happens when you go from the high being 60 one day and 38 the next.
