MMSC36 Valentine Angels and Wishes

Well, it's back to normal here at my house again.  My husband left yesterday, and now it is time to do some cleaning, and get the kids back to their normal routine.  We had so much fun though while he was here.  We even braved the cold temperatures to go out and have some fun sledding in the snow.  We are thinking of going to visit him the next time and make it a sort of vacation for us. 

So, now onto this week's MMSC.  I have decided to go with a Valentine theme this week, since before you know it, that will be here and gone too.  I think the older I get the faster the time seems to go.  Anyway, these cute little Angels are from our MMSC sponsor this month:  D'Amour Allure and really have such a vast variety of uses.  I have seen them used so nicely on Christmas cards, and they are perfect for Valentine's Day, and I can see them for many other uses.  As Priscilla would say, "you are only limited by your imagination".   We would also like to thank our weekly sponsor:  Bunny Zoe's Crafts.  They are offering some great prizes.  Check them out at the MMSC blog.   They have some really cute stuff.  Don't forget to click their link and check out their store. 






Congrats to our MMSC award winners this week:  Iris, Rosette, Jennifer and Kris!  Wonderful job!  Oh, and don't forget that we are now posting a sneak peek of next week's sketch on Fridays that you will be able to see on the MMSC blog.
 



Thanks for visiting me today to check out my sample card.  I hope that you will leave me a comment to let me know your thoughts on my interpretation of the sketch, and I look forward to seeing what you all create.  I will be around to look and back to my regular commenting again.  Have a wonderful week everyone!

Carolyn, I just love the dimension you created for these little cherubs. Your colors are perfect with the background papers and of course my favorite embellies, thanks to you are the stickles and gems you've used to perfection. :) And guess what? I FINALLY nabbed that MS heart lace border punch last week. I'm so excited to use it very soon.
