Puzzling Love!

Since my Colts couldn't play in the Super Bowl, the next best thing was a Manning win. Way to go Giants! Great game and a fun time; because I got to watch but I also got to play. We had our fun little appetizer dinner (we do that twice a year: Super Bowl and Christmas Eve) and then I got to make some cards. So tonight I have two cards to share. Woo Hoo! It's been a while since I did that. My first card is all about the puzzle part of my title.

This one started out as a picture frame card but I cut the sides differently, so I made it into a puzzle instead. The image is from Designed 2 Delight. The sentiment is from Gina K. The embossing folder is Cuttlebug Victoria. This is for two challenges:

• Party Time Tuesday: anything goes
• Paper Players: flowers
• Crazy 4 Challenge: make a scene (no not that kind of "scene"!)

My second card is the love part of the title.

Slightly non-traditional colors for Valentines Day except for the red heart. I crocheted the heart and love making them. The LOVE image is a free image from Papertrey Ink. Their designers got together and gave away an entire page of freebies. Very cool! I also used the sketch from Sketches by Carly. The circular edges are inverted circles from Spellbinders. The embossing folder is Cuttlebug Victoria once again. The patterned paper is Basic Grey. The challenges for this card:

• Capture the Moment (Papertrey Ink): Use one of the freebies
• Sketches by Carly: sketch
• CAS-ual Fridays: use a movie theme. Mine is Love Story. (Does that date me or what?)
• Outlawz Monday Challenge: anything goes with a sentiment.

 Thanks for stopping by today. My week got off to a pretty good start. I hope yours did too.
