As you get to know me better, you'll find [I like to think] I have a sense of humor. I just love a good joke, and a fun pun-y card is always good for a friend, or a guy. My guy might appreciate this one...
...especially when he learns that I'm re-cycling - love my save-the-earth kind of guy.
My "card-stock" is the packaging from an Amy Tangerine embossing folder. Yep, Ihoarded saved it. What? I've got a Krispy Kreme box, too! Empty, of course.
This card is my homage to Lynn Mangan, who delights me with each and every card, but totally pulls me in with her use of the color orange... always has been one of my favorite colors. I think it's fabulous with bright pink... what do you think?
There is a little pop of PTI Raspberry Fizz cardstock, and another one of my favorite Lawn Fawn's stitched leaves I used here, this time all water-colored up - thanks Tracey, for the new batch!
So have you gotten the pun here yet? Hmmm? Have you? If so, I hope you're smiling, not groaning... it happens sometimes. It appears my cards are still singing?
I can't wait to see what you create...that always makes me =]

Oh, this is so fun and sweet! I love the pun! Great take on the sketch, Michele!
ReplyDeleteYep, I am chuckling here! ;) I too, love orange and pink together. That watercolor leave is just gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteI figured you were channeling the Chicago song! (You'll take away the very heart of me) - perfect for a punny valentine! Love how you did your stripe element. I chose a different method! lol!

Great sentiment and another wonderful card Michele!
ReplyDeleteNot only an uber talented card maker, Michele ... but an all round entertainer as well! Brilliant! Giggling ... and humming! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteNew song in my head!! This is pretty Michele and a terrific take on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteI love your punny humor, Michele, much more tolerable than my brother's. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the colored leaf and that you recycled your background. With everything you come up with, I'm beginning to think you are a hoarder. ;-)
I must be to tired from babysitting my one year old granddaughter to get your pun Michele, but it keeps going over my head! lol And I really am exhausted. But I love your card, I love orange and pink together, but I remember when it was first introduced I didn't like it. lol But I learned to loved as time went by! So my dear I am loving your recycling, the leaf is fabulous. Oh wait, is it "if you leaf me now"??? My tired mind/body is trying hard. lol But anyway I adore your card my friend! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Michelle, that leaf looks amazing all watercoloured up, love the background paper and the glossy dots! Whimsical twine in the background is awesome!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Michele! Love the pun. :) This card is beautifully executed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card--love the pun! And yeah for the recycling, especially when it makes such a fabulous background. Your watercolored leaf looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteLovely!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to start singing the song...If you leave me now...! Love, love, love your card...the inking is stunning! Love the touch of thread, etc. Thanks so very much for the shout out!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it.
ReplyDeleteHa ha.. cute!
ReplyDeleteNot sure about that song going round and round in my head now though :-)

what a great take on the sketch. Love those colors, they pop in such an awesome way. great design.
ReplyDeleteVery clever and awesome. Love that you used recycled materials. The coloring on your leaf is amazing.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha...brilliant sentiment play on the lovely leaf - and made even more impressive given the recycling you've done! Yes indeed, your save-the-earth guy will love this, as do I! Orange and pink..yummy!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
Love your punny sense of humor and what a clever use of your punniness on this card. Your take on the sketch is intriguing and very wonderful - such awesome color choices too!!! Have a great weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteSo my excuse for not commenting earlier is that I was away on a trip and to type out comments on my iPhone is just killers, which is why I waited until now. That punny sentiment is just killin' me! I absolutely love it, and that two toned leaf! Keep on singing, Michele!
ReplyDeleteI was humming this song so much after seeing your card I had to get out my Chicago CD to listen to it properly!! Fantastic idea for a card, love the play on words!
