IKE'sWORLD Challenges ~ Valentines and Day 1 of the Bloody Valentine Hop Hosted by Smeared and Smudged Forum

I have two events in the one post to share with you today, first off  welcome to week two of IKE'sWORLD Challenge ~ Valentines.

Now, I'm not good at this mushy mushy stuff ... Gothic? blood n' guts? yeah, I can have a stab at that, but this lovey dovey stuff?..... I just draw a blank!..... So I decided to go for humorous .... I hope :)

I love this image, it is called OOH LA LA and is available at IkesArt. The sentiment I saw on a mug somewhere and it made me laugh so I decided to use it.  The backing papers and embellishments are all from my stash.
