For My Valentine

Hey everyone!  I want to share the Valentine card I made for my husband.  I have to wait until after the big day so it doesn't ruin the surprise.  My card was inspired by this beautiful card by Melissa Cochran at CrazyPaperFreak.  Her style is AWESOME and if you haven't checked it out, you should!  Here's my card:


I also wanted to share the super sweet card he made for me.  He's not afraid to raid my supplies and make me a card because he says it's really hard to buy a cardmaker a great card.  He made a scratch-off card, and it was awesome, all the little red hearts scratched off lottery ticket style to reveal some super sweet messages.  Love it!

    My hubby wouldn't even know how to find my craft room let alone create a card as fab as the one he may you! The card you made is absolutely fabulous. I love the realness to your timber fence and the graffiti initials is THE perfect touch! Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week!

    While you may have CASEd another designer, you have completely made this card your own with your colour scheme, banners and little heart addition. I love it. Such a great masculine Valentines. I love the card your husband made you too. How clever is he?! Thanks so much for playing at JAI this week ♥

    Your card for your hubby is so sweet! Into my CASE file it goes! I think it's so sweet that he'd raid your supplies and make you a card! He's very creative and it's much better than anything he could buy!
