Path of Positivity Love (or should that be chocolate)

The middle of the month and time for the midway reminder of our challenge at Path of Positivity. The optional theme this month is Love. For my card this time I have taken a lighter path! It is a well known fact in my family that apart from penguins the other love in my life is chocolate and as love and chocolate go together so well, especially around Valentine's Day, it was too good an opportunity to miss.

Materials used:

Scribbles Designs - #924 Chocolate  

Fred She Said - Valentine's Day: Better Than Chocolate

Spellbinders A2 Fancy Postage Edge Die Set

Bubbles die

dark and mid brown card

Distress Oxide - Seedless Preserves

corner rounder punch

5" x 7" card blank

Copic pens:

chocolate - E23, E25, E27, E29, E49

wrapper - V05, RV66, RV69, V09, V99

                 W5, W7, W9, E39

The idea of the circles at the side was to suggest chocolate bubbles, any true chocolate lovers will know immediately which chocolate bar inspired me there!

The sentiment inside the card reads ". . . But, to be honest, It was a very tough call."  It made me laugh and hopefully will bring a smile to my husband on 14th!
