Swept Off Feet Tag Card Valentine

Right now there is a tag challenge going on for Silhouette users. http://www.monicascreativemadness.com/ The challenge is to use a tag,a scallop shape,a button,and have a valentine theme. This inspired me to come up with a unique valentine card.
To make this card I opened the tag that came in library with the software. Duplicated and welded to make a card. I took a scallop circle file and resized it to an oval. This is cut from Pirate Stripes by Sandy Lion. I bought an assortment of paper not knowing what was in the pack. Figured for eight cents a piece for 12x12 I could not go wrong. The broom came from a page of valentine clipart that was free from Dover. I cropped it in Paint.Net and copied it and pasted it in Studio. Then traced to make my Print and Cut. I am having so much fun that I am going to have to buy more ink. The piece of trash was torn from the results of an experiment using paper towels,glue, and food coloring. I waited too long to sprinkle glitter on the paper. The heart is a free heart file from the library. Just resized and buttons from my stash glued on. The thread in the buttons was from a scrap of floss I had lying around. The ribbon is from my stash from a dollar store. I decided to go neutral as I really didn't have a color that I liked. I didn't feel like coloring ribbon with ink or markers.

Thank you for stopping by today and do come back. I'm not sure what I'll be doing next but I'm pretty sure I am through with doing Valentine stuff. Have a wonderful crafting week!
