Happy Valentines Day

I thought I would share the valentines card I made for my DH.....(even though I didn't get one from him!!!)
This is one of my first attempts at creating my own image to cut out on the Cricut machine using the Make the Cut software - It is amazing!!!!!!
The tree is based on the hero arts stamp Scroll Tree (available here) and has been created in a software package that is compatible with the Cricut Machine called 'Make the Cut' (details here). The ribbon (from a local gift shop) has been mounted onto a strip of card that has been punched out using the EK sucess Dotted Wave border punch (available here) and the little bird is from the Hero Arts clear set 'Whoo Loves You' (available here) and has been stamped using Versamagic Oasis Green Ink.
My DH has since redeemed himself by making me heart shaped toast for breakfast with jam!!!Ahh.
