Love is in the Air

Just another little post to add to my Valentine cards of a few days ago - I've used a little die and some spongeing to create this tranquil scene - I hope you like it.

I created a stencil for my circle shape, using a circle die to cut a plastic folder cover.  I try to cut the plastic to my card size for better placement.  I'm happy with this card:)  The words were cut from a larger die cut, which read:  Do what you love.  Very handy!

This was my first effort at using the cut dog and cat - but somehow I feel it looks too contrived - perhaps there is just too much space around the focus.  The sentiment is from an old Stampin' Up! set and reads:  with you .... is my favourite place to be.  Isn't that lovely?
