My friend artystamper (Julia) brought over her new TH inks, and we made some backgrounds. I really hated mine, so I went over it with white ep, and added a speech bubble, and the dog and bowl. I like it better now.
It says.......
"It's a good thing I don't have to hunt for food......I don't even know where tacos live."
This goes to my granddaughter Sam. I bought her a tee this past weekend that said, "Tell me I'm pretty and feed me tacos". She will love this card, and laugh!!!
Thanks for a fun challenge!!

OMGosh, Anne, this is so cool. I have some of these BG too, but never thought of stenciling white EP over it. So clever and perfect BG for that cute dog. Love the sentiment :-)

Wow, Anne! What a brilliant idea to emboss over the bg. I will definitely try this. I've got a drawer full of extra bgs and some of them are eh at best. Your card is adorable and once again, you've added a marvelous sentiment. Thanks for playing in my challenge.

Wow! What a great idea to emboss that pattern over your background! I love how it looks like a fancy tiled floor now. And of course, I love the humor! Brilliant card, my friend

Oh my goodness I love the BG and the added white and dog with sentiment work so perfectly. This turned out fantastic! Great save because that card is brilliant!

I actually liked the background, but I love how it looks embossed over too. The doggie and the sentiment are too adorable. I love tacos, and I totally want this card and that tee!

I don't see anything at all wrong with your original background, Anne, but adding Print Pattern to it looks super, especially in white. And of course I love the dog and your fun sentiment.
