Vintage Valentine


I made this card recently and I was very happy with the way it turned out.  The image is one that I was taken by the minute I saw it.  I have always liked topiaries and the little hearts are just charming!  I did some editing and resizing to make it work for my card.  The image is from Twisted Papers - here is a LINK to the page.

I was planning to post the details and file for the card.  However, my computer has stopped communicating with my Cricut and I have been trying to resolve this problem.  I think there must be an issue with my USB ports but I have no idea what caused it and so far I have not been able to fix it.  One minute everything was working and the next it wasn't.  I can't use my wireless mouse either which makes me feel clumsy and frustrated so I won't be able to do a full post for today.

So enjoy the pretty picture and send some "good vibes" my way.  I have so many things to do this weekend and I need to use my Cricut with Design Studio for them.  My fingers are crossed that tomorrow will be better.

  1. Diane I totally emphathize with you and hope your computer problem is resolved soon. My computer with all my pictures and cricut cut files crashed just before Christmas and I'm still in the process of trying to reload and restore everything and hoping I didn't lose too mcuh. Good luck.

  4. Diane, something like that happened to our computer recently and my DH turned off the computer and started it again, and then the USB ports worked. It's a simple solution that worked for us. You are very technical, so you may have tried this already, but I thot I would write to you anyway! Good luck!

  6. Thank you so much for your detailed CDS instructions! I think Love Struck is my favorite cartridge and you have me thinking about adapting the lovely hearts for any use. You rock
