SDC 254 - Text Background

Here's a little secret confession...I hoard old books - phone books, text books, childrens' books, romance novels, dictionaries.  The reason I can't let them go is that they make excellent backgrounds and embellishments for papery projects.  That said, the challenge over at the Stampotique Designers Challenge blog is right up my alley this time:

"Use a book, stamp, journal, dictionary, newspaper, letter or anything with text.  Let's see text in your background."

Did you enjoy the new release blog hop?  Awesome new designs, yes?  I inked up another one of my faves from the new release to create a card.

I love the whimsical, nostalgic feel of these little beach huts.  It almost makes you hear waves crashing on the shore, doesn't it?  You can find the Beach Huts stamps HERE on the Stampotique website.
