Yum! Yum! Yum! Handmade Card

My second time participating in the Caardvarks challenges and this time the theme is all about polka dots.  We are given a lot of room to be creative with that one style element as the only requirement.

I decided to make my handmade card around the theme of yummy chocolates.  Maybe it’s because I want to eat some right now, but there’s absolutely nothing in the house!  I used polka dot decorative papers in multiple sizes to create a background and little pieces of square chocolates.  I actually like the little square pattern in general and might use it again for some other cards as well.

In addition to the exclamation of “Yum! Yum! Yum!” I really like the glittery wrapper I added in (don’t worry, it’s not used!) as I think it’s a cute touch.  I think everything turned out nice and it all goes together well.  Now…who do I get to send this to?

There were a lot of great creations off of this one challenge, so be sure to check out all the different handmade cards that were designed.  Check out my handmade card on Flickr and other creations in the Caardvark Flickr pool.
