This is my card for LSC195, with a chocolate theme. There are pearls, too, for yesterdays WT193.
Given that I nearly wet my H2Os with UltraClean, I am not sure I should have been let loose in my craft-room this evening, but when I finally came up with a workable idea (after wasting a lot of time on chocolate turtles), I wanted to carry it out.
This is my gorgeous chocolate point Siamese. Unfortunately a nice pale mint green doesn't seem to be in my collection of H2Os, hence the rather dark peppermint! I may make a whole new scallop tomorrow with a lighter green.
I stamped her on watercolour paper and embossed with clear EP, then coloured with H2Os. To keep with the icecream theme, she is coloured in with Vanilla and Rich Cocoa. Her hat is gold, with, let's say for the sake of a Neapolitan flavour, a cherry (blossom) flower. The edges of the scallop were painted with gold too.
The paper is Making Memories, both layers were sponged with Encore Gold and embossed. I added some Basic Grey ribbon and some Kaiser pearls.

I just love your chocolate point siamese! Great interpretation of the chocolate theme. Love the colour combination you used on the card. REally eye catching and lovely colouring on the little cat - nice shading on her face - very nice! TFS
