Valentine Card


We made this card at our stamp club this week. I love that it uses so much pretty ribbon. It's a 6" x 6" card with a diagonal cut across the front. If you want to give it a try, just measure up about 2 1/2" from the bottom and then cut the front off diagonally to the corner. I think this would work on any size or shape of card. The holes are punched using the large punch on the cropadile. I did one in the middle first and then went out from the middle to both ends. The ribbons are cut to 3 3/4" and then tied on. All products used are CTMH. We are having so much fun at our monthly stamp club. My only problem is finding enough things to buy. I must have too much stuff...nah that can't be it.

Things are pretty quiet around here for the weekend. Mabel had a bit of girl surgery. She's recovering and I'm running around cleaning up and holding her. She is trying very hard to feel better, but egads they made a big incision on my poor little dog.

I love your card and I love the ribbon.

Be super careful with Mabel's incision. When Kinsey, my sister's Corgie had her surgery, she ran around the house and tore open her stitches and started bleeding everywhere. We had to take her back to the vet. She had to do another round of anastesia so they could re-stitch her.

I saw this card earlier, and loved it right away. Had to come back to tag you.
