{L is for Love}

You may not believe this, but I am terrible when it comes to making cards for my sweet husband! Now he is one of my biggest card making fans, and always gives me his opinion when I show him a card. So with that in mind it makes me sad that I don't usually make him cards for special occasions. Well my friends, this year things will be different. This is the card I am giving him for Valentine's Day! I used one of the new "Romance" Cuttlebug folders, and I sponged it with Champagne glimmer paint. The floral stamp is a clear set by "Clearly Inspired", and the "love" sentiment is from the Stampin' Up! set "Grateful Greetings". I used my Janome Sew Mini to accent the border with stitching and finished off the card with small pieces of folded black ribbon.

I also want to extend an invitation out to anyone that may want to join the "Busy Bee Bloggers"! If you only post 1-2 times a week then this is the blogging group for you! Let me know if you are interested. I hope all of you have a wonderful week and thank you for visiting my blog!
