The idea for this card popped into my head when I read the teaparty we were having for Carole (Gingerbeary's) Mom, Rita. See the story HERE
Since Rita likes chocolate, I created the CHOCOLATE EXPRESS gal to bring her emergency supplies of giant size Hershey bars - this is a special service we offer to the inhabitants of Jammertown, to keep up our stamping strength - see some of the other shenanigans in Jammertown RIGHT HERE Of course I had to eat the miniatures so I could cut up the wrappers, heheheh! (Sorry, I dumped the cat that was originally in her basket - LOL - who needs cat hairs in their chocolate anyway!), made a banner to attach to her shoulder strap, and added the sentiment bubble to let her know help is on the way! Sorry that this is so late - been a hectic week, so I sat down tonight and did not stop till it was done so it will go in the mail tomorrow. Hope your Mom gets a big chuckle out of this, Carole!
This is also for the Twisted Sistahs challenge to use copics on our card this week - so this was a no brainer.
Thanks for looking - have a great weekend!!

Oh, Green One, this is just too darn cute. It made me giggle.
Send the chocolate express delivery girl over today, I think I might need some chocolate. Great job with the wrappers and great coloring. Thanks, for the giggle.
