Be Mine....

Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and that means the kids need cards for school.  We usually toddle off to CVS and buy some little cards for the class, but this year, since I have a bit of paper about, and am continually seeking justification for buying the Cricut in a fit of infomercial-induced insanity (but it is really quite awesome), I decided to make Big Trouble's.  Miss Serious made the ones for her class as well - she just needs to put on the finishing touches.

Love that Cricut - it cut out all my shapes lickety-split.  These are all 3X3 cards; I attached the flowers with brads, and embossed the hearts before gluing them down.  Clean and simple, because I didn't think Big Trouble would want anything too fussy for his first grade buddies. 

Now for the tricky bit - getting him to sit down long enough to write in everybody's names....

Does the Crikut do the embossing also, or is that another process?
