MMMM Chocolate.
I love whimsical stamp sets.
Love these Val! I just adore Granny!
I'm not eligible to win, but you still brought a flood of memories back about *Granny*...we called her that but she wasn't grandma. Always kept pillow mints in a jar on her table and I'd pick all the pink ones out! LOL! She had a wooden shoe from Holland that I would clunk around in! Thanks for the smiles!
Love the granny! Cute card.
Enjoy the day~

My grandma lived far away but I remember the excitment of opening the birthday and christmas packages she sent, knowing that she loved me even if she wasn't near by.

Your card made me smile when I saw it! How cute! Love your chocolate bar gifts too! Thanks for the chance to win!
Cute samples! My favorite memory of my grandma...she used to keep magnets on her fringe way down low so we could play with them when we came over. A silly little thing but I always remember sitting on the kitchen floor while she was cooking playing with those magnets. :)
Ha this set is too funny!
I love chocolate,,,and this stamp set. You made such a "sweet" card !

This set is funny - love it!
I love this set it makes me think of my grandma. My grandma loves her chocolate without sugar and I always buy her some. Love your card.

I loved granny from the moment I saw her, but now I love her even more after seeing your card and project! You rock!
oh.... darling card. My granny was nick named (by me an a tot) Mamie.. she was the best granny EVER... I lost her a few years ago but will remember sooo many things about her. My favorite is right before she died I had her describe many firsts she experienced. Drive in a car, first date, first house, etc... I am so glad she shared thoses memories with me.
My granny ran a small town cafe. The kind were the town folk would come in for a cup of coffee. Gran would always have some fried chicken cook'in and fresh lemon meringue and coconut pies. Oh and I can't forget the juke box playing in the back ground. I really miss her. Love the stamp set and you card and candy bar wrap.
It is the perfect time of year for this. My granny always reads to us the story of Santa and the Mouse. At the end of the story she had the stocking with the hole in it and then she had little goodies made into mice for each of us to eat. What a fun tradition. I am excited for it again this year.
The granny is quite adorable. Reminds me of my gran :)
My "sweet memory" of my Grandmom - every year on Christmas Eve she would take my sisters and me downtown to see Santa , then the best part - to Marty's Sweet Shop" for Ice cream sodas! One of my favourite Christmas memories. Thanks for the chance to win a great stamp set!
Fantastic set. Love the Granny, and the candy too! Thanks for a chance to win!
Your projects are to cute and inspiring. This set is a MUST HAVE! I just love that Granny and all the goodies that comes with her. Thanks for a chance.
Really great card and love that stamp set. My grandma always loved to cook and bake and really miss all of that plus her sweet hugs and kisses all the time too. Thanks for sharing and for chance to win. Phyllis M.
Val, you did a great job (again). I almost used that same paper! Love your coloring. Thanks for sharing your creations with us.
I just love the red and purple theme you have going on here! That dp is perfect! Love her fluffy pink slippers and the wrapped chocolate with scrapling tags!!
You make everything look good - not that a chocolate themed set needs a lot of help ... Great creations.
Oops, by the time I looked at the pictures, I forgot the rules ...
Grambo was a wonderful lady. As much as I adored her as a child, I really grew to appreciate her as I got older. She was a delightful partner for a cold beer, many of her road directions included stops along the way (good for nice cold beer, or, don't waste your time, they need to clean their pipes). I miss her regularly, but I truly believe Tommy is her gift to me.
oh, I love the grandma sets and the chocolate sayings are so cute! Love your sweet card too!
My sweet memory of one of my grandmothers is of a figurine she had of a mother bird standing on the edge of a nest that contained a baby bird. Whenever I would visit I would run over to that figurine and find some sort of candy egg, jellybean etc. hidden just for me behind the baby bird. I have that figurine in my china cabinet and treasure it and the memories that go with it of how excited and special I felt.
I loved the ribbon candy my grandma used to have at Christmas time.
Love the chocolate theme! My favorite memory of my Grandma was at her 80th Birthday when she saw the 4 ft x 8 ft cake I made her. She said she was glad everyone was there to help her eat it! Over 150 family members gathered that day for a huge picnic.

Valerie, I love the Granny sets as I'm a granny myself to seven. As for remembering my Grandma I was five when I lost my Grandma and since that was 58 years ago I don't remember anything but my Mom's mom was gone before I was born so I never had a Granny but I sure am trying to be a good one for my Grandkids.
God Bless,

When you say grandma and sweet memories, all I think of is the heavenly smell of cinnamon rolls. Oh my goodness, she could make the BEST cinnamon rolls, the BEST!!!
I love Granny and chocolates! This is my kind of set. Thanks for the chance to win!
Mmm, death by chocolate sounds like the perfect way to go!! Very cute!
Love it Val, those colors are so pretty together and the tag is perfect, love it!
What a fun hop, cute set and great project.
My Grandma always had a full candy jar on her buffet when I was growing up. Now I have the candy jar!! She also had a fridge full of small bottles of pop. After lunch she'd let us have our OWN bottle! It was so cool!!
