Love is in the Air! - Seasonal Blog Hop

Hello and Happy New Year!  Welcome to another •MAKE•IT•Crafty• Blog Hop.  This time the creativity is inspired by National Papercrafting Month, Beloved Bouquet ~January's stamp of the month or my fave Valentine's Day. Bonus, new products too!  You'll see fun and simple things to make ... so enjoy!

If you've arrived from Julie's blog, you're on the right path! Remember, the blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way around. Get lost, not to worry as you'll find the complete list here.


The holidays are not over fast enough before those shelves are filled right up with all things Valentine's! What could be more perfect than to make something sweet for someone you care about? Or perhaps something special for yourself? No matter who you are creating for, this is the perfect way to get you started!



I created a layout this time around ... it's not often a single page but I was pressed for time. I was feeling hearts though ... and lots of them!  I am all for simple so I literally threw together pieces of cardstock along with pattern paper. No inking or stamping.  And, for the most part, I tend to use one of the My Reflections paper packs since it's all coordinated for you however, I had a few single sheets each of the new collections from the NEW Seasonal Expressions I in front of me and thought what the heck!

Anyways, here's another look ... 



I am loving the ombre sheet from the Regatta collection. It's pretty as a full sheet on its own yet here it's all the hearts! And the arrow pattern is from the Charlotte collection.  I am so LOVING this catalog!  Well now, it's time to stop on over at Diana's blog.  Thanks for stopping on by and hope you join me again for the next blog hop 'Spring is in the Air'!
