Maltesers

Time for another challenge over at

IKEsWORLD

Challenge 37
Naughty and Nice

Welcome back to the IKEsWORLD challenges :)  do pop on over to IKEsWORLD to join in the challenge, just remember, you must use and IKEsART image to be eligible for the prize.  Why not pop on over to the store too :), Ike produces the most amazing stamps, everything from off the wall to cute and fluffy :) :) :)

Oh I do find Ike's challenges a challenge within themselves hahahaha and this one is no exception :)  I can think of so many things that are naughty and another bunch of things that are nice but when it comes to naughty and nice in one package it is a bit of adult play and chocolate that comes to mind and sticks there.  I pondered over this challenge for ages, hoping to come up with something else but alas the brain was stuck on it's original thought.  Please, don't be offended by this creation, it is made with the best of intentions to fit the challenge and not upset folks :) :)

I have used the image Lust 1 and cropped the image down to just one small area.

Next a simple topper was made to which I added my image and sentiment.  The image was coloured with Faber Castell Polychromos.  To enhance the chocolate theme I added a large chocolate coloured bow and then die cut three cogs, two in the topper card and one in chocolate brown.  The bag has been filled with Maltesers, my hubby's favourite saying as I am giving this to him hahahaha.

Ingredients:-

• image - Lust 1 by IKEsART
• colouring medium - Faber Castell Polychromos
• dies - X-Cut Cogs
• From my stash - brown ruffled paper, Maltesers, brads

I am entering this project into the following challenges:-

Lust 1

Time for another challenge over at

IKEsWORLD

#10 Valentines
 4 - 17 Feb

We are onto the second week of our challenge so there is still plenty of time for you to enter and win the fabulous prize of $15 to spend in the IKEsWORLD store.  To win the prize or be voted in the top 3 you MUST use and IKEsWORLD digi, lots to choose from so why not pop on over to the shop and have a look around.

Oh I just love these digs, there is something about colouring the female form :) :)  This digi is called Lust 1. For this weeks DT creation I have to admit my head went into a strange mode and I came up with an idea but did ask Ike first if I could go ahead with it.  Please don't be offended - but if you are blame Ike for saying yes hahahahahaha.  Most folks make Valentine's cards for Valentine's Day but I made so many last year I really did not feel like making another one.  Plus, I had just finished my jar of coffee which was rather a nice shape and wanted to use it for a project.  If you look closely you will see what I filled the jar with, not the usual chocolates!!!!!!!!!!!!

I coloured the digi and placed it on a gradient background before printing.  The jar lid was covered in red paper which has a lovely embossed texture and the digi placed on top.  Next I finished off the sides of the digi with a couple of gold line stickers and some black lace top and bottom.  Got to have red and black at Valentine's :) :) :) :) The top of the lid also needed some attention so I cut out a scalloped circle which was red card on one side and the same red paper I covered the jar lid on the upper side.  For a bit of bling I added a red foam heart and some black lace behind to help it stand up better!!!!!!!!!!

I was in a bit of a quandary with the sentiment, part of me wanted something raunchy but the sensible side of me was saying enough is enough.  The sensible side won and I went with a simple sentiment (mainly in case some kids accidentally come across this blog post - better safe than sorry) - better safe than sorry - where have I heard that before, bit like put a sock on it hahahahahahaha  First I printed the simple sentiment then used the Cherry Lyn Heart To Heart Doily die which is really beautiful, only the centre section to start with to cut it out.  I then used the same die for the cut out heart surround, these I attached both hearts together with ribbon.

                                     

Finally I filled the coffee jar with my chosen filling

Ingredients:-

• Lust 1 by IKEsART
