 Using the Imagine Cartridge Better Together! I thought this was so cute!  All cuts and paper is from this cartridge and created and cut on the Imagine!
BE MINE Valentine is from the Close to My Heart set: D1269 February Word Puzzle set.

We are making these awesome cards for the boys and girls at Jackson Memorial Holtz Children's Cancer Unit.  These precious boys & girls will receive all the valentine cards on this blog hop. Liz is the host of an amazing blog hop and Ashley will be sending them to the hospital.. THANK YOU LADIES!!

 With thinking of valentine cards for kids and not gender based - hmm...  what to make.. simple yet I think cute -This adorable heart came from Imagine cartridge Better Together cut out at 1.7in.    The bottom base with the awesome colors is from the same cartridge and cut from the shape that is within the Imagine machine (square rounded) at 3in.  I cut this down and hid it under the yellow (scraps) .  As you could see 3 corners are rounded and 1 is squared off...  I don't know about you.. BUT I thought it was cute.  What do you think?   The word "Valentine" is from the CTMH set

I saw this in the Better Together imagine cartridge and thought.. how simply adorable and just knew this was the Valentine card to make.  not to girly - not to boyish.. Cut out at 1in, it makes a cute inside, I do think :)

Please make sure to leave comments on everyone's blog.  Please head on over to  Amber's Blog and be inspired!
