This week at
it's Kate's turn to choose the challenge and she's continuing on with her Beatles theme and she's saying, "Yesterday!" which just means that she wants to see those creations that have a vintage feel or include vintage elements.
Ah, yesterday. At the time of writing this post, yesterday was Oct. 31st, which was Halloween. And, as everybody knows, those little chocolate bars and small bags of chips do not contain any calories if eaten on Halloween. So, I, of course, tried to eat as many of them as I could, you know, because going by the logic in the previous sentence, they are much healthier for you when consumed on Halloween. Admittedly, that's not to say I haven't eaten any leftover Halloween treats today, because, I, of course, have. The difference being is that I feel slightly more guilty indulging today, than I did yesterday. Hence the beginning of this sentence, 'Ah yesterday'.
But, you didn't come here to see me wax poetic about yesterday, you came to see my vintage project. Though, I will say now, that if I had realized that this card would be posted just after Halloween, I might have went with something else because.....
.....having that sentiment staring at you as you unwrap a mini Coffee Crisp just kinda hits differently, ya know?

Love your card... but tell me more about mini coffee crisps! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I thought of chocolate when I noted the embossed background. This is really a fantastic card, Janice. I love this fun, vintage image.
ReplyDeleteSuch a super card (especially given the reminder of chocolate!) and I absolutely love that sentiment! I did have a bit more chocolate than I should have although fortunately (or is that unfortunately?!) my strapping young lads seemed to take care of it faster than I could.
ReplyDeleteLove the monochromatic color scheme and fabulous image! Oh, and chocolate on Halloween is a must!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for joining in at my Crafty Wednesday challenge this month!
