Valentine Blog Hop at The Craft's Meow

The Craft's Meow

Hello! Today is the day for our monthly blog hop at The Craft's Meow!  Each month on this date we'll have a hop with a different theme; this month it's Valentines or Love.  There are many stamps at The Craft's Meow that can be adapted to this theme, and this blog hop will hopefully give you some new and fun ideas.

You should have arrived here from Karen's blog.  If you'd like to start from the beginning, just go to The Craft's Meow for a list.  Here's my card for today:


I love this little butterfly girl from Butterfly Kisses and for this card I stamped her in red.  I also stamped the largest heart from Valentine Wishes, and cut it out, then covered the dandelion she's holding.  I used a Nesties Labels Twenty die to cut her out, framed it, and then attached it to a white card along with a panel of printed paper from Doodlebug Designs Sweet Cakes.  The sentiment is also from Valentine Wishes.  And to finish I punched out some little red hearts.  I know just who I'll be sending this to!

                      Valentine Wishes


Your next stop is at Lindsay's blog; I know she's made something sweet for you!  And don't forget to leave a comment at the Craft's Meow blog, because one lucky person will win a stamp set of your choice!

What an adorable card Lin! I have that Butterfly wishes set, but I never would have thought to stamp her in red and change her dandelion to a heart - what a creative idea :)

How cute that she's blowing hearts. Nice touch, missy.

Beautiful card. It really looks quite elegant in just the two colors. I so like the way you've changed the dandelion to a heart and have the smaller hearts drifting into the wind. Well done.
