Valentine for my hubby and My Pinkalicious Blog Hop Challenge

Here is the card I made for my honey for Valentine's day.  It just so happens to qualify for Robyn's My Pinkalicious Blog Hop.

I am rather pleased with the way this card turned out.  I originally planned on using the lips cut from Indie Art but the I came across the heart and key.  The phrase "you hold the key to my heart" came to mind and I knew that was it!.  I used DCWV Glitter Mat Stack I bought on clearance from Joanns to cut the heart, key and word.  The bling is from the $1 bin at Michaels.  The printed paper is from DCWV Formal and Wedding 8x8 stack, also purchased on clearance.  The Cricut cartridge used was Indie Art for the heart and key.  The word "love" was cut using Beyond Birthdays cartridge.  I got the Indie Art cartridge as a free download on my Gypsy, yay me!

My husband was very impressed! Oh, I almost forgot.  I wrote the phrase "You hold the key to my heart." inside the card. :)

Thanks for stopping by.  Let me know what you think.  Your comments make me smile.

TTFN, Scrappymama, Elaine
