Another Valentine's Day Card

Hi everyone, I made another Valentine's Day card using the hearts from the Wedding cartridge and the top note cut from Storybook. I saw Kim Cagle's video on youtube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnPUBvGJLxM, she calls it the Patchwork Quilt Top Note Die Card. What a wonderful way to use your scraps and her cards look fantastic. I don't have the Top Note Die, so I used the cut on Storybook that looks like it. I cut squares of scraps at 1 1/4", about 5 each of 4 different patterns. I put a 5.5 x 4.25 piece of paper through my xyron, and put the scraps on it just like Kim did. I used my gypsy and placed the paper where it would cut. Depending on your paper you may have to multi-cut, I put it on 2 for the paper I used. I really like how it turned out. I think I'll be using a lot of my scraps now!!
