Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for January 2017. We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our 2017 Blog Hop monthly themes. This month our projects showcase themes that are “from the heart.” This includes any of the following themes… Valentine’s Day, Thinking of You, Get Well and/or Sympathy. We hope to provide you with lots of ideas and that you enjoy our creations.
You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full line-up will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.
This month I am featuring the new Sealed with Love Photopolymer Bundle from the new 2017 Occasions catalog creating a Valentine’s Day card and matching treat bag. I designed two versions of the Valentine’s Day card; one using the Layering Circles Framelits along with a Stitched Circle, and one using the Layering Squares Framelits along with a Stitched Square. You can easily use the Layering Framelits for both the Real Red and the Whisper White pieces on the card, if you don’t have the Stitched Shapes Framelits set. Each of the cards also feature five of the printed papers from the Sending Love Designer Series Paper Stack (LOVE this paper stack for Valentine’s Day cards and treats). The supplies used in these projects are listed at the bottom of my post.
My favorite Valentine’s Day candy – Cinnamon Hearts. So, I filled a 2″ x 8″ Cellophane Bag with Gimbal’s Cinnamon Lovers chewy hearts. This is a great time to be thinking about Valentine cards and small gifts to give to family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, and teachers for Valentine’s Day, and getting them made and ready for giving. Take a look!

My favorite candy for Valentines Day are the conversation hearts. Pure sugar, I know. LOL I like the card with the square sentiment. I guess because it has both white and red backgrounds in it. On the other card the dsp looks too similar. Just my thoughts. Not that I wouldn’t love to receive either one. Great job. I love your blog and can’t wait to see what creative projects you come up with.

Lovely cards, Lynn. It’s hard to pick a favorite but if pushed, I’d say the white ribbon and square sentiment. Love your paper piecings!
