    Your cards are so sweet Mary! And what a great idea to give them to your husband on his way to work. I may have to make some cards like these to pack in my husbands suitcase the next time he is home.
    Love those Background stamps!

    (PS Just had to add... I would hope that no one would be upset when you use your Cameo instead of Cricut. Just as we all mix and match our stamps sets and paper to accent our crafts the machines do not need to be used exclusively. D-)
