Cute or Mean? You decide...

Hello friends

Firstly - HUGE thanks for all the lovely Birthday wishes
and also to those of you who sent cards - so kind and
I'm always so touched when people I've met through blogland
are so thoughtful.

I had a wonderful day - perhaps a little too much food(!)
but that's what Birthdays are all about...next foodie stop Christmas!

Chocolate wrappers - I think possibly one of my signature design pieces,

I've certainly been doing them for quite a few years now

but this is my first time embarking on mini (and I mean mini!)

chocolate wrappers.

I was lucky to receive this treat box of Green and Black's 

chocolate bars and before I scoffed the lot I thought I would

make wrappers.

They would definitely work well on the Christmas table,

treats for work pals, even pop in the post.
The box looks a little mangled - it was my frenzied panic to get
to the chocolate!

The bars measure just a little more than an inch across so I needed a small design.  

Red cardstock, Graphic 45 - Travelogue papers, Classic Scalloped Hearts,

the little leaves are from Marisa's Bouquet and...

 the super popular mini poinsettias from 5 x 7 Holly Frame.

(Appreciate that is out of stock but due in soon hopefully,

it's been a tricky die to get hold of as it's been so popular - 

I think I may have had a hand in that!)

So is this size cute or is it mean?

My family may be hoping for larger chocolate bars

but I'm thinking this is probably enough after a huge Christmas lunch,

pudding and mince pies?
Goodness I'm obssesed with food in this post!

Today I'm demoing Spellbinders at Crafts Plus in Basildon,

be lovely to see you if you live local to there.

Take care friends - I'm back soon.
