American Crafts: Valentine's Day Blog Hop!

Welcome to the American Crafts Valentine's Day Blog Hop! Here is my layout I created for the hop using mostly the XOXO collection. I had a lot of fun putting this one together of my cuties in their lovely Valentine's Day outfits!


Of course, I couldn't resist adding a paper heart doily!


Love that little journaling card!


This collection has a lot of very cute heart die-cuts!


I also have a giveaway today with some random American Crafts goodies! All you have to do is leave me a comment with how you are celebrating your loved ones today and I'll select a random winner. You have until next Wednesday, February 20th to comment and I'll post a winner on Thursday.



Here's a list of everyone in the hop today if you want to keep going!

  33. Adorable layout! Since the hubs works from home, I took the day off and have been cleaning the house. I got him a smoothie for breakfast and will be making a Starbucks coffee run for him later. We'll be grabbing a quick bite together for lunch and then I'll be making him a nice dinner later. Nothing fancy but at least he knows I love him and hopefully appreciates the little things I'm doing for him today (and everyday). :)

  83. My hubby had a business meeting one and a half hours from where we live. So I went with him. We decided we'd go to Joe's Crab Shack. When I picked him up from his meeting, he said he had a conference call @ the same time we would be having dinner. But he could listen to it and still eat. You know in the past I would have been upset that he wasn't really spending time with me, but this year I was just glad we were together and he was gainfully employed, giving his job the attention it needed @ the time. It was a good night.
