Cut & Paste for Valentine's Day

I had a bit of time to play again.  This time I used the Cut & Paste collection by American Crafts.


First up is a card that is for either a tea or coffee lover.  I used the Coffee Cup and Tab dies from My Favorite Things along with a Silhouette cut file.  Nice and flat and postal friendly ;)

I am playing along with the sketch over at MFT

Next up a simple, masculine card for my hubby for Valentine's Day.  

I am playing along with a few challenges.  First up the sketch is from Retro Sketches:

The colors were inspired by Let's Capture Our Memories

Also playing along with the Curtain Call challenge:

And finally the Fusion Challenge:

Really cute, Laurel! Love your coffee lovers card. Great mix of neutrals with a pop of color, and love what you did with the washi tape on that one. And loving your hubby's Valentine, too! So many great layers and little details. Love the stitching and super love the staples!
