Happy Hamiversary!

Ok I have to admit it, I LOVE THIS CARD!! :-) I think it turned out really cute. That mostly happened because the image is so stinkin' cute - it's a Hambo, of course - this one is called Soda Shop Pigs. Oh so sweet! The card has a lot of fun details going on... You probably can't tell, but that heart paper has glitter on all the hearts - it's soooo cute, but it's one of those $5 pieces of DP - ok, maybe not quite $5, but it *was* one of those where after they rung it up I was in shock over how much I had just paid for a sheet of paper! LOL But it sure is cute! The sentiment on this one makes me giggle too - "Happy Hamiversary" - hee hee! And just an fyi, for next year around this time - they also have one that says "Happy Valenswine's Day". Love it! I used Taylor's Cupcake Challenge this week for the layout - a very fun sketch this time around that helped push me beyond some creative block I was experiencing when I sat down to stamp. A couple other fun details about the card - the soda has liquid applique "foam", and the sentiment was stamped in black and then traced over with a Spica glitter pen. Now I need to wrap this up, I'm so tired I can hardly see straight, much less think of coherent sentences to type...! I may have to edit this post in the morning... LOL Thanks for stopping by!
