I made this for LateBlossom's OLW challenge on her Simplicity blog this week to layer an image and sentiment on a one layer card.
I made my own chocolate kiss stamp by tracing around a Hershey's kiss on a piece of scrap rubber, then cutting it out. The kiss is off-stamped once to make it a little lighter.

Really effective card! I love all the negative space - it really makes the image and sentiment stand out. Have you tried Artist Carving Block to make your own stamps? I find it wonderful for making solid stamps that have a reasonably simple shape. Having said that, your choc stamp is awesome - I thought it was a commercial one!
