Happy Valentines Dear Husband!

Here is the Valentine I made for my husband. Men are so hard to make cards for! To be honest, I don't own one single "masculine" set. This is a bit flowery, but I chose the red and black to try to make it a bit more manly. This was really simple! Isn't this heart the most beautiful heart ever?!? This is from the new Stampin' Up! set called "Always". I loved this set as soon as I saw it but put off purchasing it until I saw a few things using this set and then I could resist no longer! I heat embossed the heart with silver embossing powder (I did the same with the greeting that reads "you mean everything to me"). I heat embossed the berries with clear embossing powder on the black background. The pretty black ribbon is some that I purchased from Walmart. Anyway, I hope you enjoy some time with your sweetheart tonight!

Crystal - This one is great. I always have trouble coming up with manly card ideas. It is just beautiful!
