heartfelt: adjective

Deeply or sincerely felt; earnest

I have been playing more and more with my center point feature on my Cricut. I owned this machine for 4 years and never once used it, now I LOVE it! lol It's amazing how that happens, isn't it?

I am Valentine's Day challenged....there it's been said aloud
Really Reasonable Ribbon's challenge is a Valentine's Day theme...so hum....what to do when your not married, not dating, not anything romantic or lovey dovey smushy crushy bah hum bug....oh...tmi you say? Well I have decided that the only way I'll be able to enter all thse lovey dovey challenges for the next couple of weeks is to find a way to.....deal. OK...so I have my Cricut Card Fairy cards to send out and I can send cards out to other friends who also are in the same unromantic boat as I'm in!

So I made this Cricut Card Fairy card for the family with a 20 month old baby that is going to have heart surgery in February. I hope this doesn't look too much like a Valentine card but I was thinking of focusing on a heart since that's what the surgery is about.

Very pretty Sandee. I might have missed something, but I'm guessing the Cricut Card Fairy cards go to various people/families that you may not know?? What a sweet thing to do. Love the ice cream cone too! I'm trying to catch up after all the problems Blogger has had lately, it was so frustrating just trying to visit that I gave up for a few days!--Pat N.

This is such a pretty card, Sandee! I love the center-cut heart and the stitching around the edge. The birds holding the sentiment is a really great touch to the card! Thanks for joining us @ Frosted Designs!! :)
