I do but I "don't" card...

My family and I have come to visit my step Mom and my DH thought he saw where my step Mom's BF had posted on facebook that he was in engaged, well you know me I didn't want to show up empty handed so I made a card JUST IN CASE this was really true. Turns out he was commenting on something someone had said to him about being married to his motorcycle (yes you heard me right) and he replied back that no he was only engaged to it. (Never trust your DH to give you the full story lol). So I had to tell her the story and show her the card anyways... We thought we might cover up the lady in the card and put a picture of his motorcycle in her place and give it to him anyways. :D

I used the sweethearts cart for the inside of the card. I don't remember what cart the "congrats" on the outside is from though. I know I LOVE using my Xyron to put glitter on things though as it makes it so easy to do! The clothespins are glued on with nothing other than Helmar's 450. That stuff holds anything in place! Look closely and you can see the sneaky lil bottle trying to get in the picture as it ALWAYS does ;) 

On the inside I used some hemp but I took Lindy's Stamp Gang (one of the blue colors) and soaked it in it for awhile. You can't see it in the picture but it glimmers and shines that stuff is so awesome to use! 
 
Hope everyone is having a great week!
