OOOOH! What FUN! The challenge at CCCB #162 is to be inspired by Jane Austin. Well I've read the novel however what sticks in my mind and will stay with me always is the recent movie adaptation.
It's the scene toward the end where Mr. Darcy is running across the moors to find Elizabeth (Keira Knightley). She in turn is coming to find him. They meet and speak and he finally says,"I Love...Love...Love You." It has to be one of the most romantic scenes EVER and I have watched it over and over!
So here's my sentiment inspired by Pride and Prejudice:
A here is my card:
The BG damask print was made by spraying dylusions melted chocolate ink spray though a Donna Downey damask stencil. I paired it with paper from PTI's Dear Jane Collection. I printed the sentiment on my computer, distressed the banner with the sentiment and the doily to make it look vintage. The scalloped lace is velvet and the flower is Prima.
I hope you like it! I'll be saving it to give to my dh for some occasion!

Wow, you sure are rocking the stencil technique -something I have never tried on a card. Maybe I'll have to give it a go. Actually I think I created stencils from Nesties once and that was fun.
Never seen the film/movie but itdoes sound very romantic. Great to use the text as your sentiment.
