Valentines Cards for the Feel the Love Blog Hop!

Photobucket
Welcome to my blog on this blog hop!
Sorry I'm not more detailed for you, I'm fighting off a nasty cold.
Here goes!
DD helped me make some of these for family.  I would have liked to do more to them but a 3 year old has a short attention span!
I used the Create A Critter cart and my gypsy to weld 2 acorns together.  Then I sent the top of my acorn through the swiss dots to give it the extra effect

I made a V-day card for my hubby, but I wasn't really happy with it, so I made another, and still not all that happy.  Oh, well I'm sure he will like it.

I made it so the tummy will get a "raggy" effect around the edges

Ok so this one turned out totally different than what was in my head, and it is full of mistakes, I'm not even sure if I should sell it. You can't see in the pictures the flaws. The bonding on the tummy wrinkled, the spot I sewed it shut stretched and more. And she was supposed to look sweet, not sad.

So I need a good story behind her for my etsy shop, maybe unrequited love? Oh and she also has a heart on her bum
