A Valentine

I was inspired to make this card after seeing a card that my friend Marla had made using the Stampin' Up heart punch. She was inspired by Valita's Fresh Folds. You can see her site here.

Anyway, I don't have that punch, but I do have my Cricut and the George cartridge, so I was able to make this card. I cut the hearts at 1 1/2".

See the silver heart in the photo? My husband made that for me out of aluminum many years ago when he worked for an aluminum extrusion plant. Isn't it sweet?

Colors: Cranberry, Black, White
Stamps: Wings (in the new Wings workshop kit!), and Amore (December stamp of the month)
Accessories: Black Button Brad (New!) and a Opaque pearl accent.

Softie Cupcake

This was not my original idea. Unfortunately, I can't remember where I saw it first, but it is a very cute idea, so thank you to the person who inspired me!

This "cupcake" is made from a pair of those really soft socks you can find anywhere this time of year. All you do is layer the two socks together and start rolling from the toe with the heel facing upward. Keep a straight roll at the bottom edge of the sock. Secure with a rubberband and adjust the top to create "icing". Insert a pom pom in the top for the cherry and place in a handmade cupcake cup. (Note: the bottom of the cup is open)

Colors: Pear, Cranberry
Stamps: Inkadinkadoo
Accessories: Socks, pom pom
