So I said I'd be back later.......well, it's MUCH later!! I ended up having a bit of a nap before I went in to work and didn't get back on the computer until after supper!! Ooops!!
Well, here is a card I posted on SCS this morning as a My Favorite Things Teaser!!! As you may or may not be aware, MFThings will be releasing 3 new stamp sets on Wednesday, Feb. 6th and we are having a Cocktail Release Party in the MFT Forum over on SCS from 9-11pm EST!! You won't wanna miss it! It's fast paced fun and foolishness and you can find out how YOU, yes YOU, can become a MFThings Guest Designer!!! Be sure to meet me there on Wednesday night!!!
One of the new sets is called Twisted Sentiments and is an absolute riot!!! All the DT members had input into the 'adult' sentiments that went into this set.....let's just say mine are several of the tamer variety!! I swear!!! Anyway, they have been a lot of fun to play with!
This card features the mini set How Sweet It Is along with one of the sentiments that I had a hand in!! I stamped the gal eating chocolates on Wausau bright white cardstock and coloured her in with my Copics. I also stamped a couple of chocolate kisses and a sundae, coloured them in and then ran them through my Cuttlebug with my Nestabilities. I also made the rectangular frame using my Nesties too. Then I added crystal lacquer to all the chocolates to make them look yummy and shiny!! The dp is Ginger blossoms by SU and the sketch is actually an MFT Sketch Challenge for this week! Now isn't that sentiment just a stitch??? Don't tell Al I made it up, now will ya!?
Now LOOKING at chocolate is about all I can do for right now. We have planned a trip to Florida for the last week in February and since I plan to be spending most of my time in a bathing suit, I figured I'd better lose a few pounds! So I've started on the South Beach diet again. I lost 30 pounds the first time and kept it off for over a year now. I've gained 3 or 4 back, so I figured it's time to nip it in the bud before it turns into 10! Anyway, the first two weeks of SBeach are murder.....no sugar, no bread, no potatoes, no fruit....no chocolate!!! I won't drink coffee either because I can't have sugar in it and what's coffee without sugar.....motor oil!!! So I'm not drinkin' it!! And I absolutely detest water.....I cannot begin to tell you how much....there are no words. But I am choking it down. Anyway, think good thoughts for me....or rather for my family and coworkers as they are the ones that will have to deal with me and my crankiness over the next couple of weeks!!! hahaha!!!
I'll see you tomorrow with another fun challenge!!!

I love your chocolate chips on this, so yummy looking!
And it shouldnt make me laugh while your suffering but you crack me up about water, that's all I drink!
And if you every need a chocolate fix then you could buy some cacao nibs and eat those, pure chocolate no sugar. They are a little bitter at first, but you get used to it.
What a cute card! Can't wait to see the new releases and hope my family will let me "attend" the cocktail party. Your secret from Al is safe with me- teeheehee!
Another fab card! The colours on this are scrummy!
Oh Kimmie...You crack me up. Good luck on your diet for your trip..Love the sentiment...Nice card..and the ice cream sundae!
Oh kimmie! You poor thing but I am with you on the water thing! I can't stand to drink it, although when I am in MX I take those flavored things to hydrate and they are much better. But they might not be allowed on your diet- but probably. I can so understand the water thing. Good luck on your diet. And thanks for giving me a kick in the butt to create- I have a few things done and will post to SCS.
Ugh... good luck on that no chocolate thing! You'll feel so much better about the whole thing though, when you put on that bathing suit! Cute card... can't wait to see that new set!
Wow, 30lbs...that's fabulous! I'm sure you will be gorgeous in your suit in FL! Great card!! I can't wait for those sentiments!
WOW! I love this card. Your work is just fabulous. Can't wait to see more from MFT! Thanks for sharing. And good luck on the weight loss. I hate water myself and have to force myself to drink it!
