Sotm blog hop - wild about love

Welcome to this months blog hop.  We are featuring wild about love.  You should be coming from {Wanda Riley}.  Next is{ Sheila Bennett}.  This is circle hop, so wherever you start, you will still see everyone. If you get lost, you can find the whole list of bloggers {here}


I hurt my right hand so I am very slowly working with my left.  I am ambidextrous, but not 100%.

This first thing when I saw this stamp was the stump and how I wanted to do I initials in it, but it was too small.  Frowny face.
I wanted to do something different with these stamps.  I know everyone was going to do " what does the fox say" (which I still have no clue about, I just know its some sort of video with singing, maybe). I wanted to do word bubbles, but thought that it would be thought of that way.  So I thought it would be cute to make baby cards with the fox.
The saying underneath is from a stamp set called new arrival.  It is not in the idea books, but it is a cricut compatable stamp, which mean they are always available.  How cool is that?  But back on track.  The image actually features a alligator with an bird on his nose.  So I masked him out.  
see how I masked the stamp. Here is stamp set normally


This is my valentine card.  The polka dot paper is retired, sorry, but any polka dot would do.  I actually cut the stamp in half to separate the two foxes.  The banner is from remarkable wreath.  That is not in the new book, but stamps are available for one year, so you can still get it.  I still think there is something missing, but since I can't put my finger on it, this is how it will be.
