Music of My Heart


Can you believe it,  it's February already!  Have you started on your Valentine cards yet?   I just received my BoBunny Crush Collection papers and some ribbons 'n lace in the mail from Stamp Simply Ribbon Store and was anxious to start.  

I told myself to work with the images I already have and to not buy any more "Valentine" stamps, so I inked up my good ole adorable hedgehogs to make this card.   I don't think my will power will last too long, tho, as I'm already itchin' to buy some of those cute images for Valentines that I've been seeing in blogland, lol! 

My sentiment was computer-generated and made with a JustRite stamp border.  This border is from the Christmas Joy set but is good for any occasion.  The vintage music sheet was a freebie from Mygrafico Digital Arts & Crafts Store, thank you! and the heart doilie is from Walmart.

I look forward to seeing your Valentine cards, thanks for looking at mine!
