I've taken inspiration from the colours in the centre picture - lovely warm chocolate brown with a splash of red and cream, and the gold serving plate too.
This layout pokes a bit of fun at my Tim Tam obsession, so I'm also submitting it at Lasting Memories for their Guilty Pleasures theme, and at Stempelgarten for their Yummy theme:
According to news.com.au: Australians get through 400 million of them every year, making Tim Tams the world's most popular chocolate biscuit per capita.
Materials:
TimTam packaging - 50th anniversary
Pink Paislee Cupid - Postcards patterned paper
Pink Paislee Cupid brads
Green Tara Gerberas - dark chocolate, red
Prima Artful Collage paper flowers
American Crafts Thickers - Jewelry Box alphabets

Karen,
ReplyDeleteI googled them and even found a US distributor. I am going to try them! I had a good laugh when I found out they were named after a Kentucky Derby horse! Thanks for finding me something else to feel guilty over, LOL.
