Card: Good For A Kiss Anytime

I love this stamp set!  I first time I laid eyes on it I had to have it.  The set consists of the "Good For A Kiss Anytime" ticket and the "I love you (I admit it)" stamp (which I used on the inside of the card.)

I'm linking this card to the very first Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge.  The challenge is to use your hoarded goodies to make something that reflects your style.   I love everything from clean and simple to shabby chic to grunged-up Tim Holtz style.  This card hits somewhere in the middle and most of my cards tend to be like this because it's what come easiest to me - it's layered and has many elements yet it's clean and balanced.
