Valentine's Day Blog Hop!

Monday, February 10, 2014

Today I’m joining in on a super fun Valentine’s Day Blog hop hosted by Jenn Shurkus over at the Creative Chick blog. This blog hop began on February 1st  and is 14 days of Valentine’s Day inspiration by lots of talented crafty ladies. You can also win prizes by leaving a comment on my blog and by leaving comments on all the other blogs that are participating as well. 

Do you want to view the blog hop from the beginning? You can do so by clicking here. Cheiron Brandon over at the, My Craft Life blog is first on the list and you can hop your way over to my post from there—you can even leave a comment on each blog along the way! That will definitely increase your chances of winning something. 
If you’re stopping by my blog from Laura Sterckx’s blog—welcome! I’m next on the list and I’m super happy to share this V-day card I created using a few stamp sets by Lawn Fawn and an awesome die set by Mama Elephant. I used the lovey-dovey elephant duo from the stamp set, Love you tons, by LF—the ‘You+me=” sentiment from the stamp set, Science of Love, and the alphabet stamp set, Milo’s ABCs to create the custom sentiment ‘Tons of Love’. The scalloped hot pink panel, and the white stitched panel that holds the entire design was created using the Femme Frames die set by Mama Elephant and you can find that by clicking here. You’ll notice that there is a light gray, pink, and blue confetti design coming in from the bottom of the panel and I was inspired to do this by the Mama Elephant packaging that their dies were stored in. To create this confetti effect I used a small circle stamp from the Lawn Fawn stamp set, Gnome sweet Gnome and I think it turned out so well. 
Sharing the LOVE! Since this is the season of L-O-V-E be sure to leave me a little love and my hop participants a little love as well throughout this series. (hint: we LOVE comments) Let me know in the comments how you are sharing the LOVE of this blog hop- you can share the link on FacebookTwitterInstagram or Pinterest

The more times you share, and the more days you share the better your odds of winning! I will be randomly picking some sharers and posting them and the prizes at the end of this series.

Next on the hop is Jennifer from the Just Jingle blog, and her post will be up tomorrow. Don't forget to visit her blog tomorrow morning and leave a comment! I hope you enjoyed my card, and thanks for stopping by!

**Update: Just for fun I thought I'd go ahead and enter this card into the newest Dots and Hearts Lawnscaping challenge

  14. I, too, have this Love You Tons LF stamp and die set......just adore those precious elephants!!! I did surgery on mine and cut it so I could use the Love You on one line and the Tons below it.....or make a custom sentiment. Love how you did your card. The gray and scalloped pink are perfect!!!
