Love you more than coupons....CTS#24

Hello everyone! I have another card to share today! This is based (loosely) on CAS(E) this Sketch #24:


Here's the inside:

and the sketch:


As soon as I saw this sketch, the only thing that came to mind was the vertical lines reminded me of a UPC code and the zig zag could be where a coupon started to get ripped out. LOL! Good thing Kim Hughes @ Paper Smooches can read my future mind! HA! I had the stamp set that was perfect for my vision! Instead of ripping the coupon, I stamped, colored and fussy cut the scissors. I used an X-Acto knife and cut the corner and adhered the scissors to look as if they started to cut out the coupon. (I curled the corner a bit too!) This is another sketch that I'm sure to be using again. I already have a few more ideas and will make those into cards soon!

Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave a comment! I love hearing from you!
