Just A Note and Chocolate...Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #373~Sweet Inside

Hello,

Ready for more decadent delights? Hope so! This week, we're inviting you to  play along with  Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #373~Sweet Inside. Look at that abundance of frosting goodness, set atop a jammy filling. These remind me of the cupcake tarts my grandma used to make: tart crust, a dollop of jam, cupcake batter, baked, then iced. Nothing like having your cake - and 'pie' - and eating it, too!


This week, we're sponsored by


The Greeting Farm is generously providing a prize of $20 gift certificate to our randomly chosen winner. Thank you!

My interpretation is as literal as it gets! My new little Just A Note die and stamp set came out for a play...

 and nestled inside: a little chunk o'chocolate!


Of course, I had to make another (and a few 'nothers more...). Neon inks on this one and yep, chocolate inside, too. I'm planning to make several of these little notes for my brother and sister-in-law to tuck into Ms. T's lunchbox now and again. Grade 1 is, after all, quite a journey....


What's super cool: Amy T is our Surprise Sweetie! Be sure to check out her 'Sweet Inside" card, along with those by my teamies:

Your turn! 
What Sweet Insides will you share with us?
Looking forward to seeing your creations in the gallery!

Thank you so much for spending part of your day with me; your visit brings me joy!

Mmmmm chocolate! Yum! They wouldn't have made it into the card in this house! Such cute cards with the Just a Note die. You are such a sweet Auntie to make these for your niece. I'm sure she will love the cards as much as the chocolate!
