Valentine's Blog Candy!! {and more!}


*********NOW CLOSED***********
Here are a couple of Valentine's Projects that I have done recently. This first one is a Jenni Bowlin Bingo Card that I altered into a little decor piece that can be displayed on a little stand. I used a vintage photo which I printed out of my Print Shop software. I also used some Making Memories Love Notes tags, a Valentine pick from Michaels, pink gingham ribbon, a K&Co. Felt Heart, a hemp cord bow and a MM Heart Pin. I added some Pink Poinsettia Shimmerz to the tags for a little Shimmer!

Next, I made a Valentine/Love photo clip holder from one of those giant clips. I purchased the clip at ACMoore for a buck! I covered it with some K&Co. glitter paper, another Valentine pick, some red gingham ribbon, a K&Co. felt heart and some more Pink Poinsettia Shimmerz to the tag.


So do you want to know what you can Win?? How about both the projects that I showed above AND a full package of Making Memories Love Notes Tags, MM Love Notes Shaped Pins, 2 each of 12x12 MM Love Notes papers (Artisan and Love Words), 1 Maya Road Sheer Heart Coaster Album, a Martha Stewart Mini-Hearts Border Punch, a 6x6 Basic Grey Bittersweet Paper Pad, a jar of Pink Poinsettia Shimmerz and I also am giving away some cute Imaginisce Twitterpated Little Critter Rub-Ons (they are soo cute!) and some Twitterpated stamps, 1 each of Foxie, Birdie and Wildflowers!

What do you have to do?? Just leave a comment on this post telling me if you make your own Valentine's Day cards and leave a link on your blog telling everyone about my Blog Candy! And if you want 2 chances, become a Follower, I mean Friend, of mine! :) I will have my son pick a winner on Tuesday February 3rd at 2 pm! Good Luck! Oh, yeah and you know me, I will probably add more items before this is done!! ;) I love giving things away!!

Have a wonderful day!!

Hugs,

    YUM! I'm a Friend/Follower and I'd love to win, so enter me twice please.
    I've made over 70 Valentine cards so far; some for family/friends, some for challenges (Card for Kids) and some for a local priest to give at the nursing home. I'm planning to make a few more that my husband can sell to his male coworkers who always forget until the last minute!

How did you ever got started on this stuff ?I have no clue on how to do these I have no talent at all when it comes to this stuff, Your so very talented and have a very Special Gift from God .I bet you even send these Beautiful creations to your Birth Mom and your Birth Dad. Bet they love them as well as all of your family and extended family does. They are very luck to have such a very Talented Daughter. Bet they are so very proud of you. I saw back on another comment you use to do candles also , Do you still do them ? If so you should post them with your cards.you do so much altering I bet you could incorporate them with you cards.

    well God Bless keep warm its almost 80 here in Florida today.

    Hello!

    I hope everyone is having a good afternoon? Just wanted to add a quick comment about your great creations! How lovely are they! I really like them, and so different to anything I ever seen in the shops! All of your crafts would be fab for Valentine's Day! Is there anyone else out there who gets a bit overwhelmed by all the soppy cards and gifts that pop up in the supermarkets just before Valentine's Day? God I do! I don't really like overly romantic Valentine's Day cards, and I resent having to spend about five pounds on a decent card! However, I have recently been introduced to a new way of sending someone a greetings card. My friend Jenny sent me an electronic greetings card whilst she was on holiday in America this year, and I thought it was such a good idea! I spent ages looking on the internet doing some research, and found a fantastic website that has a
    Wide range of Valentine's Day e-Cards I am a big fan of this site and one of the best things about it is that it is totally free, so not only are you saving money on postage, but also on paper, so it is a great idea for the environment! They have a new range of Valentine's Day e-Cards with an added twist! They inject a bit of humor into Valentine's Day greetings! They have a cool application where you can upload a photo of yourself and incorporate it into the greetings! I just think it is a great way to make Valentine's Day much more light hearted! Just wanted to share my findings with you all!
    Have a great Valentine's Day whatever you decide to get up to!
    Lots of Hugs, Nicole.

I do make my own Valentines cards, as well as every other special occasion. I have been a card maker for 16 years and have just evolved over the years.

    Very neat projects! I always see the dollar deals at AC Moore but never have the vision....

    I'm a first grade teacher and I always make my kids either a card or a treatbag and card. That's tomorrow's project!

    What beautiful creations!! Thanks for joining in on my blog candy too!!! I had no way of contacting you, so I am leaving a comment in hopes that you will see it. My blog isn't properly updating in your blog candy corner. Feedburner interferes and I can't fix it. In the future, when you add my blog to a blogroll, will you paste this http://feeds.feedburner.com/robinsartfulmusings
    instead of my reg blog address? That will make it update properly. I will be having more blog candy very soon!!

    My valentine's I'm giving to my hubby, friends, and probably one for my mom. I also am making a Valentine's day toy for my kitty cat, C.J. though I can't make it till the day before-he finds even hidden toys. :)
    Cute blog candy! I love it!

    I'm not a follower yet, but I love your blog and it's in my bookmarks which is just as good as being a follower.
    I make all my own cards so with Valentines day it's a handmade one for sure though I usually go with something more than a card. One year I made a mini envelope book and inside the envelope I wrote out little stories about the days when were weren't married yet. I still love going back and reading them all.

    Valentines Day isn't a big event in New Zealand, but I usually make a couple of cards or treats for my kids on the day. This year I am making little chocolate boxes for my sons.
