I made today's 5" x 5" Valentine's card using some cuts from the Cricut Tie the Knot cartridge, ("lips", pg. 53), Cricut Wedding Solutions cartridge (frame sections) and Cricut Sweethearts ("hugs and kisses", page 36). All of these cuts are also on the Spring Fever Holiday Cricut cartridge.
Using DCWV glitter paper, I cut the "hugs and kisses" at 2-1/2" and mounted that on three frames that were cut at 2-1/2" (white), 3" (pink patterned) and 3-1/2" (black). This frame is actually the background to a "love" framed image. I ran the white section through the Cuttlebug using the Conversation Hearts folder for some texture.
I cut the lips at 1-1/2" using two different glitter papers (hot pink and red) and mounted that in the corner.
The whole "hugs and kisses" square was then pop-dotted onto the front of the card. Viola! Quick and easy card!

Very cute card...great colors and layering. In fact, that layer is exactly what I need for a project and I never saw that on the cart. Thanks forshowing me it was there. That's one of my fav things about your projects is that you use alot of carts we already have and it's not always about 'new' ones that we have to worry about buying all the time. Thans so much for all your time and efforts that go into inspiring us everyday.

Hugs and Kisses to you for another cute card. So I have always wondered - when you sign a card with xoxo that means hugs and kisses, but which are the hugs and which are the kisses? I thought the o's were the kisses because it is kinda the shape you make with your lips, but maybe they are the hugs because the o is the shape of putting your arms around someone. Inquiring minds want to know : )
Cute card! Love the lips!!
