Heart Happiness

Good morning my crafty friends! I hope you all had a GREAT weekend and that you enjoyed every minute of it!  I'm so excited, I have a couple of girlfriends coming over this morning to play so I get to be out in my workshop ALL morning and early afternoon! Plus it's birthday week for one of my girlfriends so we'll have a special lunch!  FUN TIMES!

It's "Make-It Monday" time and I have a fun one to share with you! One might think it's a Valentines day card, but I think it's a great card just to say I love you!  I also thinks the Color Theory Designer Paper makes a FANTASTIC background for this card!  Hope you are INSPIRED!!!
