A Chocolate Bunny Good Enough to Eat

A waaaaay late Easter card but it's soooo cute I had to share it anyway. I demoed this card at Lorie's party back in March. (Thanks for hosting such a great party Lor!) Not only does it LOOK like a chocolate bunny, it SMELLS like one too! You can make any image a scratch n sniff image by combining your SUGAR-FREE powder (cherry kool-aid, cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg etc) with clear embossing powder. As an added warning, make sure you are using powder that is sugar-free or your chocolate bunny will start to smell like burnt-and-charbroiled chocolate bunny...not quite the same effect!

And that medium jewellry tag punch...now used to make a fence!! Brilliant!

Instructions:
1) Mix 1 part cocoa (or sugar-free hot chocolate) to 2 parts clear embossing powder

2) Using chocolate chip craft ink, stamp the chocolate bunny onto close to cocoa CS

3)Generously cover the image with the cocoa/embossing powder mix and tap off excess.

4)Heat with a heat tool.

Other scratch n sniff ideas:
*Make your cherries from the Tart n Tangy set smell like cherries by using sugar-free cherry kool-aid
*Make your Christmas stamps smell like gingerbread by using cinnamon or nutmeg
*Make your cake or cupcake images smell like chocolate by using cocoa
