Wild Thing, I think I love you!
>> Monday, July 23, 2012
I just couldn't resist adding "I think I love you" to the Wild Thing in my title. My husband is a music buff. He knows the lyrics to so many songs, as well who sang them and when! I'm going to give this card to him. Inside I'll hand write "I think I love you!" He'll get a kick of that!!
My card today features the recently released King Lion stamp and the Wild Thing sentiment stamp. The background was created using the Wax Paper Technique with Tim Holtz Tattered Rose and Brushed Corduroy Distress Inks. The background makes me think of animals, so I thought it would be great for this King Lion image. King Lion is stamped on white with Memento black ink, colored with copics, cut with a nestie and layered on the same light brown CS as the card base. The sentiment is stamped on white with the Brushed Corduroy ink, cut, corner punched and layered on the same brown CS. Four tiny brown button brads were added to complete the look.
Don't forget to join in the Christmas in July challenge at DRS Designs. This week's challenge is to make a card using a Santa image. We'd love to have you join in the fun!
Until next time,
