Happy Joyful Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

It's the official hug your hunny, snuggle your sweetie, swoon over your sweetheart and kiss your Cutie Day!

(although everyday works for me ;)

This is the card I made my hubby for the day. I used Gina K's "How Sweet it Is" images and sentiment. This stamp set raises money ($7. per set sold!) and awareness of Diabetes, so if you are like me and live to support worthy causes, check out the set! Her company is worth it's service in GOLD! I used the paper piecing technique for the sundae...it's one of my favorite techniques! I used SU markers to color the image and some hearts from SU's A Light Heart retired stamp set.



Here's another bottle project that I put together for my DH. He is a real chocolate addict and I decided that to be a good wife and not sabotage his diet, I would give him chocolate with portion control....of course I have absolutely no will power for portion control, but thought he'd get a kick out of it! LOL!!

The label uses Stampendous' clear acrylic abc's and says "mi esposo favorito", one of my pet names for John (it means "my favorite husband" in spanish. In my experience, in Mexico, they don't capitalize as a rule in informal writing! Ever get an email in spanish?) The "love ya" is so very ME and is stamped in CHF's Scripty words set.

He'll love it, I think :) How can he not?!?




In other news (tee hee)--My SBS sister Amber has awarded "the sistahs" with the Blog of Excellence award...How sweet is that? We're supposed to nominate other bloggers, so here are a few of my VERY VERY favorites:
Nichole Heady's blog at Capture the Moment and Holly Brown at Glitter Stamps and Ink, oh My! These ladies do blogs and cards AWESOME! Check them out!

Well, all, have a great great day! Don't forget to give a big hug and kiss to the ones you love!! Enjoy the day the Lord has made! Rejoice and Be Glad!!
