F4A101 - "Chocolate Cake" - 01/27/12

F4A101 – “Chocolate Cake” – 01/27/12

I am always a little more than fascinated with holidays. There is a stinkin’ holiday for EVERYthing. And it seems that most days have at least one or TWO “holidays” commemorated on that day. Well … guess what today is???? National Chocolate Cake Day!! (I seriously think we all need to call in sick and stay home, watch Pride and Prejudice – the A&E version – and eat chocolate cake ALL DAY!!)

With that in mind, the challenge is to use Chocolate Chip (brown) and Crumb Cake (Kraft) cardstock on your creation. The rest is up to you. Heck, if you wanna actually STAMP a chocolate cake, no one is gonna stop you! And if you wanna send me some REAL chocolate cake, p/m me and I’ll send you my address (har-de-har!)!

Here is my sample:

National Chocolate Cake Day?? Where do you find all of these weird "holidays"? I might be able to do this challenge tommorrow...maybe.

[CAKath]

This makes me want to raid the kitchen for chocolate, a little late night snacking..... But I'll probably create something manly with these colors predominating. Awesome inspiration for us, Wendy.

Love it Wendy! I just saw this holiday on Hobby Lobby's facebook page! I'll have to try this one this afternoon.

[Crafty Julia]

Wendy- this is for you- what a super challenge! I started this card with all these brown tones last night, hoping it would be suitable for today- all I added was the cupcake and some glitter glue! I get to visit my friend Carolyn and her mobility dog Barkley today- and it's in their honor, too. Here's Chocolate Cupcake for Wendy.

Wendy what a great challenge. My mouth is already watering... Here is my chocolate crumb cake card. The dark panel really is chocolate looking in real life not black. Really cloudy, dark day here so hard to get colors photographed right.
