After putting away the Christmas decorations this year, I found that things were looking just a bit to plain at my house. I decided to take some time to create some new Valentine decorations. I am usually creating for others or for my etsy shop and I must admit that it was fun making something for me this time.
The first project I completed was this sweet little frame which now sits on my kitchen windowsill.
I used a stamp set from Paper Trey Ink, one of my favorite places to shop. The set is called Every Day Button Bits. If you click HERE I have posted a link that will take you right to their site. (just in case you need to have this set for yourself) :)
I enlisted the help of my Cricut machine to create this next project. Using the "Tie the Knot" cartridge for the banner pieces and the "Nursery Rhymes" cartridge for the lettering I created this love banner. With some finishing touches of ribbon, bakers twine, machine stitching, hearts and flowers it now hangs happily from the shelf in my kitchen.
Well now that I have created some fun projects for myself, I'm back to creating for my Etsy shop. I hope you will stop by for a visit. I will be adding new items soon. Before I close this post for tonight, I wanted to share this picture with you. All Things Grow with Love----my love for this little guy grows daily. How could it not......
I sure am blessed to have him as my weekday buddy when his Mommy and Daddy are at work.

HELLO!!! It's so good to see a post from you!! I missed your last 'rose colored' post and think you look very chic in your glasses!!
I also love your Valentine creations and decor! This time of year everything is so drab looking and color, especially red really does brighten everything!
Didn't you make a few cards last Valentines Day with the same stamps? I loved them then and I love them now. Really a versatile set. Mimi
