Thinking of you Card

***This is my 2nd Post for Today***

I just wanted to share a card that I had to try today.  I used the Market Street Stamps Vintage Wallpapaer and stamped it on Acetate from PaperTrey Ink using Timber Brown Staz-on Ink. Now this is the first time I tried doing this technique and with this background I am lovin' the look.

Recipe:
Card Size 4.25 x 5.5
Card Base is Acetate from PTI
I put the pink paper from Recollection inside to write your sentiment on.
The Carnation is also from PTI Year of the Flowers Collection
Sentiment is from SP and Co Mix N' Match Sentiments: Basic Stamp Set
I stamped this Vintage Wallpaper Background with Timber Brown Staz-On Ink, the size of this stamp is 4.25 x 5.5 just perfect for an A2 Card.
To be honest the only problem I had was using a spray glue to glue my pink paper on the inside for some reason it is leaving marks.  Anytips Guys? would greatly appreaciate it.
