My hubby's Valentine card

Cricut Cardz challenge #60 is to make a valentine for a man.  The most important man in my world is my husband, so this one is for him.  I wanted it to mean something for us and this does.  He often teases and asks, "Will you marry me?" or says, "I'd marry you quick if you weren't already taken."  I thank the Lord for him every day!!!  (but I hope he doesn't check my blog again 'til after the 14th!!)  I know it is quite pink for a guy, but he's a romantic and man enough to handle it.  LOL!

What I used:
  • cardstock base made to fit in some nice envies I found in my craft room that I did not know I had!  :D
  • background shapes are shapelies from Penny Duncan Creations
  • kneeling couple from SWH cut at 3 1/2" and shadowed
  • sentiment inside and out was printed on vellum
  • ribbon, brads from my stash
  • tiny hearts are from a Fiskars corner punch

 pop-dots for some dimension
 

Here's the inside...

Can you figure out our wedding date? :D
Thanks for looking!!!
