Always on my mind - forever in my heart.

I saw this card at Lily Bean Paperie and I instantly loved it. So I went to the drawing board and this is what I came up with. I just got this stamp set last month from Stampin' Up! called Stem Sayings and I love it. I got the Martha Stewart Edging punch for Christmas and the heart punch is from PTI, but you can also get this new heart punch from SU in the new catalog! So, I'm excited because I can use this punch at my stamp club too! The lace came from Wal-Mart and I used my cuttlebug to emboss the pink background paper. The colors are Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze, and Chocolate Chip. The ribbon is from PTI, Ocean Tides Satin. The felt flower is from SU in their Flower Fusion pack of felt flowers...they are so pretty. Hope you enjoy this card as much as I do. I am defnitely going to use this color combo again. Now....I think I have to get to "work" and pick up some stuff and gather more ornaments from the tree!

Last, but definitely not least, here are my kiddos today "posing" for Mommy on the couch. We have been home all day and it is frigid outside, so we've been doing indoor stuff. The kids want to make brownies yet today so I know that is on the agenda for after naps. Hope you are having a good Monday. Thanks for stopping by!

This card is beautiful! It really is I love using that text and textile CB embossing folder it is so elegant.

I to had just purchased that large heart punch when I saw it out in the sampler so cool I will love having a big heart to use.

I love that Martha Stewart Punch it was always out at our Wal-Mart but I found it in Pueblo (CO) WalMart when we were home for Thanksgiving so I snapped it right up!!!

Your colors are so pretty and the whole card goes well together!!!

The Kiddo's are totally adorable Ava has the cutes chubby cheeks!!! Ethan's hair looks like it is getting a little darker maybe it is the lighting!

Thanks for Sharing Alicia and good luck tomorrow!!!
