Chocolate Is The Answer Card

Good Enough To Eat Card

The clip art images of the chocolates I used look very realistic.  If you glance at the card, you'd think you could pick one off and eat it!  They look as if they're sitting on a plate with a scalloped rim.

YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH

This came in an email today. It's fun and only takes a couple of minutes to do.  Try it!

Don't tell me your age; you'd probably lie anyway-but the Hershey Man will know!  

This is pretty neat.

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute .
Work this out as you read .
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like
to have chocolate (more than once but less than 10)


2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1762 ..
If you haven't, add 1761..


6... Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.


You should have a three digit number


The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).

The next two numbers are


YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)

Chocolate Sings Card

The play money on this card was some I bought at the Dollar Tree in the teacher's supply area.  It was so much smaller than a real bill that it fits just right on an A2 card.  It was printed on white paper so I distressed it with Tim Holtz ink.

In the photo, the papers appear to be white when in fact they're all cream colored.

I added this view later---with the bills done into a fan across the bottom.

Just too stinkin' cute not to steal!

Looking around this evening I check out Dawn Griffith's blog.  She has such cute ideas on there and I really enjoy her videos too.  This card is one that she received in a swap from Danielle Bodden and it was just too stinkin' cute not to steal it!

I used my SU scallop punch to take the bite out of the corner, larger scallop punch under the sentiment and had to use the E to cut the 2 3/4" circle out of the pink.   The chocolate chip SU paper was run through the Swiss Dot Cuttlebug folder.  A very appropriate color choice for the background, don't you think?

The sentiment is printed on my computer, it's not the new SU stamp.  I added some doodledots (there's that word again that makes me laugh!) and a little ribbon.

I will be making multiples of this one and I'm going to pop-dot the sentiment to give it a little more dimension.  On this one, it's just stuck down with ATG tape.

As Dawn's always saying, "Love it!".
