Chocolate vs. The Scales


Tis the season.  Everyone has packed away the Christmas decorations and lights and they are now worrying about reducing their "winter bulk" and trying on that bright oh, so revealing, dreaded swimsuit!  Well my contribution to the cause is a Girlfriends Card made with Weighing In from the Digi Doodle Shop.  Everyone needs a diet partner and who better than your best friend, the girl you tell all your darkest secrets to, the one who would never tell a soul what you really weigh.  Yeah Right.  LOL  Well if you are lucky enough to have a BFF, this may be the card for you.

The border was punched with a MS punch and the tab was a SU punch.  the sentiment on the tab is a stamp from my stash.  the inside sentiment was computer generated from the stash in my head.  LOL  The buttons, measuring tape ribbon, rubber Chocolate embellishments are all from my stash and I can't tell you who the manufacturers are.  I used a Paisley Cuddlebug embossing folder and I also embossed the square with the Spellbinders Square die.

Do yourself a favor and hop on over to the Digi Doodle Shop Challenge Blog.   The challenge this week is "Embossing".  You can dry or heat emboss.  Just have some fun adding some interesting texture to your creation.  Need some inspiration?  Check out what my DT mates have come up with.  Make a project using a bit of embossing and you just might win a $10.00 gift card from the shop.

Happy Dieting to all my Blogging Sistahs!

PS:  Dr. Oz says that eating dark chocolate is really good for you.  It has lots of anti-oxidants in it.  Sounds like chocolate is a health food.  I think he did kinda  mention the word moderation though.

PSS:  Don't forget about the points you can earn over at the Digi Doodle Shop and those wonderful 99 cent digis.
