This Month's Swap is hosted by Roxie (morgainegeiser)
and for this month's challenge she decided we should make a card for an UNUSUAL holiday,providing us with a list of unusual holidays at this funny,quirky site: http://www.brownielocks.com/month2.html
Well,I was so undecided by what kind of quirky Holiday to celebrate and then...*EUREKA!*...
I found the Chocolate National Holiday Day...Yippeeee!! Just up my alley...LOL There are TWO chocolate days to be celebrated on Nov 28 and 29! The more the merrier I say!
For this card I cased my super artistic friend Lorie's chocolate card she has sent me a while ago.Hers is a product of sheer perfection while mine is just a feeble semi-imitation but ,alas, I had a great time making it and am loving the results nonetheless :o)
I absolutly love that SU d/p and wished I had more than just one sheet left.
**NOTE**: if any of you knows the name of the set where that chocolate bar image comes from (SU! 2002) please LMK...
(I bought it recently at a craft sale and there is no name on the set)*Thank you*
~~~Thanks for your gallery visit :o)~~~

Sweet P... your card is heavenly!!!! I love it!!!!!! And if you got For the Love of Chocolate at a craft sale, you are one lucky woman. I've been looking for this set for years! And it is very pricey if/when it is ever found.
