"OF ALL THE FISH IN THE SEA . . . "

Last Saturday was my anniversary and, for two days, I carried the idea for this card in my head.  I ended up using different waves than what I had imagined and hoped my torn paper would, indeed, look like waves and not snowdrifts.  My poor little fishes got a little ragged when I had to remove them from the first set of waves that I created (and didn't like), but they still looked okay and I knew that my husband would be too kind to ask what happened to them.  The greeting on the front of the card was designed with Stampin' Up!'s MDS2 software and then die-cut with a Labels Collection Framelits die to layer onto the front of the Pacific Point card.  
The inside of the card features a fun sentiment layer that lifts to reveal my handwritten message.  Additional Stampin' Up! products used to create this card include:
Card Stock:  Pacific Point, Whisper White, Real Red, So Saffron, Bashful Blue
Punches:  Scallop Edge Border, Itty Bitty Shapes (heart)
Sizzix:  Labels Collection Framelits, Happy Whale Clearlits
Accessories:  Paper-piercing template, piercing tool, mini silver brad
