I am in LOVE with Countless Sayings 2! I love using my Aqua Painter to color in the big letters. I hope we get more sets like this in the future! I thought the big font looked nice in this framelit from the Apothecary Accents Framelits. I stamped some small hearts in Blushing Bride around the outside of my sentiment and then pierced around the edges using the coordinating piercing pack from the backside to give it some extra textured. I then put sticky strip along the top and bottom of the back and looped the Raspberry Ripple ribbon to make sort of a frame around it. The corners are punched with a small circle punch so I could add some rhinestones. Gotta have some bling! :) OH, and I also remembered to go ahead and finish the inside too!
It's very simple and leaves less room for me to have to write in...since I make so many cards for Brett I am sometimes short on words. At least when I write in a card I am. I think he might say differently about that when we are having a conversation! lol
