This was made for chellenge LSC154. I was playing around with a few other stamps and trying to come up with a good valentine when this stamp caught my eye... the PERFECT Valentine for my dh!! We just love the movie A Christmas Story (watch it non-stop every Christmas!) and if you're a fan of that movie then you'll recongize this stamp and the quote!
I found the stamp at Sideshow Stamps (www.sideshowstamps.com) and when my dh saw it he said "OMG you HAVE to buy that stamp... I don't care what it costs". Words I never thought I'd hear uttered from his mouth! So I bought it (and a few other things... might as well save on shipping right?) and here is my Valentines day card for him.
The sentiment/quote was printed on my computer. The fishnet background is actually toile backgrounder from CHF. ***(I'm such an IDIOT!! I've been referring to the background as Toile....it's Tulle!!! I need to get my fabrics staight!! Sorry about that!)*** I added dots along the edges of the card base and image for challenge WT152.
Thanks for looking!
