You Make My Heart Soar....

 I've been trying to decide what to do for my husband's Valentine's card for a while now, I finally just decided on this simple design. At first, the balloon looked a little boring on a plain kraft paper background, so I used my white marker to create clouds! I love the simple look.

I used the hot air balloon svg from the Up Up and Away Clipart/SVG set from Lindsay. It was very simple to cut and assemble!

You Make My Heart Smile...

Whew. It has been a long time since I've posted anything crafty....Finally I'm back for Thursday's with Lindsay! Here is a quick and cute Valentine's card I made using Lindsay's "A Little Lovin" svg set and my cuttlebug. I love my new cuttlebug!

Valentine for my Hubby

I was totally stumped for what kind of card to make my husband for valentine's day. I didn't want to make a sappy one, but I'm not the best at coming up with funny cards either. Thankfully, my good friend Lindsay gave me some inspiration. She was on the ball this year. She made her card a few weeks ago and as soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to use the same sentiments for my card (or close enough anyway). Here is her original post.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to just use a clipart of a cow or make one with my cricut, so I just set out browsing google for ideas. Then I came across this old black and white photo. Inspiration hit! To me, it looks as if this is a hot shot business man talking to some young farm boy about girls. haha. So this is what I imagined he would say to the boy: "Remember boy, don't buy the cow if you get the milk for free." haha.

Hopefully my husband will get a kick out of it! Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine for my Hubby

An Alligator Valentine

Remember that guy who wanted an alligator christmas card? He wanted an alligator valentine card this time, so this is what I came up with. I found this vintage image on google and altered it a bit to say what I wanted.

I used this week's sketch at Friday Sketchers.

BIG NEWS & a Valentine's Card

It's so nice to get back in the swing of things after the holidays. I'm having a lot of fun preparing for Valentine's Day. I didn't start making cards until after Valentine's last year, so this is the first time I've ever tried them. I'm lovin' it!

Of course, it is so easy with Lindsay's cute little digi stamps. It didn't take me long at all to make this card, I saw these cute little birdies from the Love Grows Here Set and knew exactly what I wanted to do with them! The cute little Lover's Lace across the top of the card is an svg freebie from SVGCuts.com. You can find it here.

Also today and tomorrow everything at MyGrafico is 25% off!

The sketch is from 2 Sketches 4 you.

Butterfly Valentine's Card! + Word Art Freebie!

Well I'm sure you've been wondering where I've been! I slipped off to Florida for a couple of weeks for vacation. I was in Ft. Myers. It is much warmer down there than it is here in Kentucky! It is nice to be home though. I was having a crafting withdawl! Although I did find something to fill the void. I'll post about that tomorrow! I've been making bracelets!

Ok now to the card....I made this cute little valentine's card using the butterfly svg from the "Love is in the Air" SVG Set by Cocoa Studio. It's just $4.50 for 7 great valentine themed svgs! I was given the kit to test out and here is what I've made so far!

As for the cute little word art, you can download it here.
