Welcome to the “Heart Warming" Blog Hop!  

We're so happy you could join us today!  

If you came from Vanessa's blog then you are in the right place. If not please start at Melanie's Blog http://afternoonscrapper.blogspot.com, we don't want you to miss any of the fun!

I had soooo much fun with this blog hop...I had this big huge Valentine's breakfast for my 5 youngest grandchildren and of course wanted everything to look festive. So I have a warning this post is going to be very photo heavy! Every single one of my photos do not fit the requirement of the "heart" blog hop...but I wanted to show you all of the decorations. I am so sorry that I did not get a whole room shot.

I used the paper Lucky in Love by My Mind's Eye! Love it!!

Prima flower jars with conversation hearts with glitter heart picks and a few Cricut cuts to add to the mix.

These 2 hearts were cut from Paisley...I cut the Mama as large as she would go!

I got this cute decor from Hobby Lobby at 50% off cause it was damaged.
Where the picture of my hubby and I sits was the damaged part...so I added the little frame and the silver swirly. I just love the way it turned out.

Sorry this picture did not turn out well. I made a little conversation heart tree.

Another Hobby Lobby find...I altered it by adding some lace, pearls, and the lovely pink flower.

My banner hung across my hutch. I showed this in an earlier hop at the beginning of the month.

A Pinterest inspired project. I used cupcake liners to create this topiary.

Hope some of these projects have inspired your "heart" to get going and craft something.

It's Valentine's Week over at Cuttin and Stampin!

Weekly Challenge #4 Tuesday, January 29th thru February 4th.

Create a Valentine using a stamp.  

(you don't need to use an A Muse stamp to enter)

I have a great project to show you today. Our assignment was to create a Valentine using a stamp and I have a really cute project. I am having my elementary and preschool grandchildren over on Valentine's Day for breakfast. So, I wanted to invite them in a very special way. So, I decided to mail them an invitation.
I used a round canister type container I had hanging around my scrapbook room, wrapped it with the A Muse paper, used the stamps on it, wrapped the twine around it. Then, I used a dollar store doily and my computer to generate the wording for the invitation. I intended to include some candy in there and totally forgot... Last, I headed off to the PO and mailed the canister off to my grandchildren.

Supplies Used:

round canister

A Muse paper and twine

A Muse Stamp Set: "At First Sight"

Dollar Store doily

Computer invitation wording cut into a heart
