Cupid Kisses

Hi my crafty friends, hope your weekend has been a great one and your week is off to a good start. 

I have had this cupid die in my stash since 2019 and I'm just now using this cutie! I think I forgot about him. Shameful I know. It was a gift from a sweet blogging friend, she knows who she is and I am thankful for her and this little die. I decided I wanted him to sit on some letters. But really couldn't think of what word besides love. So that is what I went with. I think he looks so cute sitting on the "L" with his foot on the "O". I used some leftover background DIO smooshed paper I had made long ago for my letters. I did stack my letters, 4 thick and the cupid is two thick, his heart is just one layer. Not much to this card, but think it is cute. 



As always, thanks for stopping by, I know your time is precious. Hopefully I've been by to check out what you have been up to as well. 


Crafty hugs,

You say not much to this card, but I think that is what makes it so very beautiful and full of love. With the Cupid on the L and O, the little heart and the beautiful letters, who would want more. I love it.
