Wallet Lovin'

So, when Cuong (my boyfriend) and I lived a good ways away from each other, I would send him cards (not ones I made, but these super funny Hallmark Expressions cards...they have the best punch lines, and for me, a card has to have a punch line!). So now that we live close, I have started a new little thing that I am calling "Wallet Lovin' " So they are 1 dimensional squares (3" x 3") and they fit right inside his wallet!
When I gave him the first one today, he told me from now on to just slip it in there when he is not looking....I love that he is now REQUESTING how I do MY THING! haha.

Cardstock: one of those scrap packs
Ink: Colorbox CHALK Cat's Eye Pink/Purple set
