Yes, I have a confession. It has to do with the picture below and self control. The problem is that I don't have any when these candy coated chocolates are within reach, or across the house in the kitchen in the cabinet!:) I did show some restraint only buying these 2 tiny bags last night at the store! Compared to my last shopping experience which included peachy rings, gummy bears, cadbury eggs, mini eggs, marshmallows, and blow pops:)
Onto other news...here is a cute card I made with a cool embossing and paint technique. First you clear emboss an image (I used my crowns stamp) then paint over it with acrylic paint. Then using a clean sponge lightly wipe off the image and access paint. Try it sometime!
Happy Wednesday!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Cadbury Mini eggs. My most favorite sweet treat at Easter time...
Cadbury Mini eggs... Yummy!!!!
They are sooo good! I have some friends with some strong opinions about them too! :)

Will have to try that technique. Thanks for sharing.

I DON'T BLAME YOU. THEY'RE WONDERFUL!
WHEN I WAS PREGNANT I ATE NUTTER BARS LIKE THEY WERE GOING OUT OF STYLE FAST!! I HOPE YOU'RE DOING WELL!!

Oh yes- the sweet joy those little eggs bring to my mouth! :) That technique sounds cool... Looks awesome!
I have to admit, those are my fave. Wished they carried them year round ;) I am so glad to know there are other mommies that enjoy sweets like I do!! Love the card too. What stamps are those?

too funny! those are my favs also and when Easter time rolls around you can find packages around the house... you gotta stock up!
Cadbury eggs are my favorite. I'm not really supposed to eat them right now because I've had blood sugar issues with this pregnancy... but I do carry one in my purse for the occasional day when I'm feeling naughty!
OMG Cadbury Mini Eggs, I love them. I am on a diet and if I loose 3 more kilo's before easter a bag of eggs is my reward!!!!!!!
Cadbury mini eggs are my biggest weakness this time of year! They are addicting!
Cute card, what a cool technique.
I mentioned you on my blog...and posted a LO and card that you inspired. :)

Yummy...I have no restraint in buying candy. My dentist is terribly angry with me. *smile* Cute card!
i have evidence on my blog from after my last shopping excursion... cadbury topped the list. i don't know what i spent more on, candy, clothes, or scrap stuff...
love those eggs too. I always forget about embossing techniques when I scrap... I guess because the heat tool and powders are out of site in my little corner I just don't think to use them, I should pull them out tonight.
I have never seen those mini eggs. I'm sure they are tasty. The card is beautiful. :]

Love the card...it is adorable. :) And seriously...how much candy would retailers sell at Easter time if we only bought it for the children. :)
Those are my fave easter candy too... yummy!
You'll never guess when I found these first out on shelves for this 2008 easter season... I got some that had just been put on sale at my local ShopKo store on CHRISTMAS EVE!!! I bought some for stocking stuffers. We got to enjoy mini eggs on Christmas! Crazy.
Cute Liz, I got to your blog thru Angie's...will you pass this along to Camille & tell her to quit blocking me from her blog - she can run but she can't hide!

O I love mini eggs, u reminded me I totally forgot to pick some up at the store the other day! Looks like I will be stopping on the way home. Love the crowns!
Me tooo! I love those little things! Finished off a bag myself last night. I can resist my Dove Chocolates and just eat three or four but with these no way! I have fav. candies for every holiday!
Those flipping Cadbury eggs are single handedly responsible for me gaining weight each Easter season!
