Valentine's Card

 Good Morning

Today I have been naughty.  After not buying any crafting items for months, my will power was beaten!  I ordered a new set of dies from Carnation Crafts.  They're really pretty and I know I will get lots of use out of them!

My card for today is the card I have made my hubby for Valentine's Day next week.  On the 9th February it will be 38 years since we started going out together!

I followed the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches and got further inspiration from Inspiration Station - it inspired me to use items from my Kanban 'Love Your Pets' collection for this card.


I used an EK punch to create the border and added Peel Offs.  The little bones were die cut from little snippets of black card with dies from Creative Crafting World, and the hexagonal mats they're sat on are also dies from CCW, cut from snippets of silver mirror card.

I added a matching insert to complete the card:


I would also like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Cardz 4 Guyz - Challenge 340 Love

Wednesday's Creative Inspirations Challenge - For someone you love/A special friend

 Snippets Playground - use snippets

Thanks for visiting.

Brilliant valentines card, unfortunately I have given up making any valentines cards for my hubby, he thinks we are toooo old and its a money making racket, so he's getting nothing as I wont be getting nothing, I have tried to give him a tatted heart as a bookmark, and heart shaped things, but it falls on deaf ears.
I hope your hubby enjoys his card
