gettin texty with it





today i am sharing a card i made for the most recent challenge at lawnscaping - getting texty!





it was super fun and easy card to make, and i really like it! but i was looking at the other submissions so far, and they are so amazing! so i'm having a bit of card envy! i already have another card in mind for this challenge, as well as a layout. now i just have to find time to make them! (we're moving on saturday, so i'm also operating with half my supplies, which makes it more difficult!)



anyway, here it is:





i printed out the lyrics to queen's 'you're my best friend' onto white cardstock. that is one of my all time favorite bands, and song! i used a strip of vellum to soften the lyrics where i put the main sentiment.





i used lawn fawn's 'quinn's abc's' stamp set (one of my new favorite sets!) and just fussy cut the letters. inside of the card i paper-pieced the pears from 'my silly valentine'. i thought it would be a cute little addition since the pears just look so cute and friendly together!





alright, that's it! i'm off to finish work and hopefully get a little crafty later tonight! :)

enjoy!
