I've always been very interested in Photo Transfers, and all the various techniques, but never took the time to actually do one. So...it's about time!!!

WELL, if Tricia's got a spoiler up for the upcoming Love Blooms Event, I guess it's O.K. for me to do the same :) WhaaHooo! I'm so glad because I think this project is so totally SWEET! I'm going to let the pictures tell a lot of the story, and hoping they tell a LOVE story!

It's a box...

Usually Valentine's Day just comes 'n goes without much of a blip on my radar screen. But 2012 continues to feel a bit different.
Prototypes of all of the Love Blooms materials have been arriving at Club Scrap, and I have been having a ball making project samples, filming the workshop videos, writing instructions, etc. (Well, maybe not the "writing instructions" part. . . not necessarily at the

Thought I would take a little breather on posting Valentine's Day projects, although we are getting closer to Febuary and the CS Love Blooms Event is almost here, but until then I'm enjoying the Navajo CST project, the Tri-Pane Book

Before this project came about, I did see something similar that inspired me, but I thought the book should be larger and also thought how cool it would be with Club

Until our Love Blooms Event arrives (and because I want Valentine's Day project fun to extend much longer then just mid Febuary), let me tell you how well the remnants of "Let Me Count The Ways" works for Valentine crafting. The huge 12x12 sheet of stickers (Let Me Count The Ways Clever Number Stickers) and Mini Cutapart Strips worked so well for creating this Valentine's Day card and layout

I've always been a little sweet on our Extra! Extra! Transparencies and for just over a buck each, why not include them in my Valentine projects?

I came across this heart stencil from CS January 2007 and used it with black and pink acrylic paint. Of course just painting a heart shape free-hand on the backside of the transparency would work too. Also thinking that a nice thick Shapie would have

Hetty Sanders, a very talented and creative Club Scrap member from the Netherlands, hosts a technique challenge each month on our chat forum. This month's challenge is to use a stamp "kissing" technique, which basically means that you ink a solid stamp, and then stamp another image onto the stamp. Just like "the real deal," there are many methods to stamp kissing. :) The challenge submissions

Have you been on the Ferris Wheel with someone sweet? That's what this card reminds me of. I used the County Fair CST Wood Mount stamp to creat this little Valentine card.

Just a couple punched out To You With Love Pink cardstock hearts, and I was on my way.

I added a couple stamped images from the 2009 Heart To Heart UM that I just happened to have handy still, and put it all together.

How cute I

I'm just so excited about Valentine's Day this year! Kay Williamson started it. She began creating all of these super-cool cards with our in-house love-themed stuff. (Note to self: Bring Kay hot coffee tomorrow morning.) Plus, we have the amazing "Love Blooms" Event right around the corner, and I'm thrilled about how that is all coming together.

But in the spirit of Efficient Crafting, I wanted

Get ready to take a flight on the Wings Of Love!

The From The Heart Wings Of Love stamp has got to be a favorite of mine, the quote...the image....so cool. So I've made a couple new Valentine's this year with it, and of course enjoy looking back at other ways I've used it in the past.

Simply stamping with any ink and using it that way is great as it is, but I also really like the look of coloring
