Showered with Love (Paper Issues & the Ribbon Resource)

I'm so excited to share a project I made  with The Ribbon Resource, May Arts  and Paper Issues.
The ribbons were all so gorgeous it was hard to decide what to work with but the beautiful banner ribbon gave me my inspiration. I decided to create a Valentines banner to send to my daughter to decorate her room. I ended up using 4 different ribbons from the Ribbon Resource and they're all so beautiful!

Here's a look at the process

Valentine card

Here is the Valentine card I made for my hubby.


















 I used my cricut to cut everything out. The scalloped heart is from Doodlecharm and the scalloped frame is from Accent Essentials.



















I used the frame on the envelope and the inside I inked and used for the background of my card. I also cut I love you from Jasmine. I used a silver embossing powder all over the heart which just made it pop. I love how that turned out. Also on the envelope

I used a SU stamp and punched with my circle punch then matted with a scalloped punch.
This was a lot of fun to create!

Valentine Album for hubby

I created an album for my hubby. We started dating a couple of weeks before Valentines Day 24 years ago. Wow! Doesn't seem possible. We've had a very trying year so I wanted do something special for him. I am not the gushy kind and don't tell him how much I love him nearly enough. A year ago come March 20th I almost lost him in an accident when he fell from some scaffolding that collapsed. He landed on his head on the edge of a concrete slab and received a major brain injury. He was not expected to live let alone ever lead a life as he'd known it if he managed to survive. I'm happy to say God is still in the healing business and answers prayers. He's alive and well back doing the thing he loves, building houses. This is my small tribute to the last 24 years and looking forward to many more to come.

Valentine Day Flowers

My daughter and I saw this idea on a blog and she fell in love. She wanted more of a daisy look so I created a flower using George in Design Studio and cut them with my cricut. I think they turned out adorable. They would look awesome as a bouquet in a cute little heart container.
