When I finished this card, I wasn't too sure about it, but the more I look at it, the more I like it. Does that ever happen to you? The two panels and the circle under the heart are Cuttlebug embossed. The circle was cut with my Coluzzle. I used my Stampin' Up ticket punch on all of the panels. Pink ribbon was tied around the smallest panel. The "I love you" is a Studio G $1 acrylic stamp from Michael's. I added a couple of Prima Sprites, and the heart is an embossed design that I've had for quite some time. I believe it's by We R Memory Keepers. Let me know what you think.
Next, I got this CUTE card from my SBS2 secret sister. We're doing a card swap, and I got this adorable card yesterday. I love the colors, the lion image and how it's layered in two different colors, the circle scallop, the small sentiment, and I totally love the dotted colorful patterned paper. Thank you secret sis!
My secret sister also sent me a package of self-adhesive Primas. Thank you again! I can't wait to use them!
Whew, it's very COLD today! It's going to continue for a few days. It's shocking to go outside!
On a sad note, I was so sorry to hear about the death of Heath Ledger. I just love "10 Things I Hate About You" that he made when he was very young. I also thought he was excellent in "The Patriot". So charming, so much talent and potential, and what a tragic death.
Thanks for stopping by.

OH wow love prima goodies and that sweet adorable card. But let me tell you the card you made at the top is GORGEOUS!
I luv what you did with this valentine card...it's fantasticly beautiful!!! It's always nice to get mail. Like her card, too.
Carol, I love the V-day card! Such a cool layout and the embossing is terrific. Love that heart!
How fun to get cards anonymously, isn't it? Can't wait to see what you do with those Primas.
I was so sad to hear about Heath Ledger, too! He was very talented and so young!
Love your sketch card, it is fabulous! I do that all the time, not liking it at first then I go back and think its not so bad. My theory is you have been looking at it too long working on it, get a bit sick of it and then after having a break and look at it again you like it again!
Love the secret sister card and primas, fabulous mail! Like the idea, how did it work?

Great cards, love the cuttlebug heart one especially. Now you tell me you can get self adhesive primas............there goes the budget!
Lovely card (and the one from your secret sister!)!
That happens to me all the time - I make something and am not sure about it, then it grows on me.
I was so sad when I heard the news about Heath Ledger. He was a truly exceptional actor. 10 Things I Hate About You is a great movie - one of my "pick me up" films.
I like your valentine - it reminds me of candy treats! That's my favorite embossing folder.
your card has great texture! i really like the look of the 2 panels! how lucky are you?! what a great find in your mailbox, primas!
