Friendly Gnomes Valentines card

 

Oh.......check out this adorable gnome!

He is from the 'Friendly Gnomes' stamp set.

He just makes me smile! 

This is a fun center gate fold.

 

I die cut the letters using the Alphabet A La Mode Dies.

Here the card is opened up.

 

This is what it looks like when standing up!

Notice how I cut the bottom part of the gnome off & 

attached him to the top of the heart! 

I just love the way this turned out!

It is a totally Susie card.

As you all know that I love hearts & plaids!
