We hope you enjoy hopping through the beautiful DT projects and find all of the fabulous ways we've used flowers inspiring. Be sure to stop at each one to smell the roses! Find all 5 of the hidden white roses and you could win some fabulous candy! Each rose is hidden on a different blog throughout the hop.

Tami
Shana
Raquel

For my project I created an Easter layout that is perfect for those pictures of Easter egg hunts. I mixed and matched 4 sets from Scraptastical Kreations to create my paper piecings. I used " Cruisin' with my Chick", "Eggs 2 dye 4" and "Easter Cuties" to create the train the Easter Bunny is driving off in. To create the little boy holding the egg I used the body and egg from "Easter Cuties" the face and hair is from "Pool Sharks"  The paper I used is from a digital paper pack I created called Easter Fun. I designed my layout in a digital program then printed the paper with the mats out and added the paper piecings. I am offering the Easter pack on my facebook page for free. It can be found at the top of the page by clicking on the red heart labeled free digital pack. You must like the page before it allows you to click on the paper.   




Now, it's off to Tami to see her fabulous project for this month's challenge.
Thank you so much for hopping along with us. We hope you've been inspired to join in on the challenge, we can't wait to see what you create!

For my project I made a Hersey nugget cake. I printed digital paper from Hearts Aflutter onto a letter size label sheet, then cut them to the size of the nugget. The circles that form the base of the cake are also from the digital paper pack Hearts Aflutter. I made each bow using ribbon and a fork.

Love is in the air




Hello everyone and Welcome to Love is in the Air Blog Hop!
Valentine’s Day has to be one of my favorite holidays next to Christmas and Thanksgiving. I love the décor, flowers, candy, balloons, and stuffed animals and let’s not forget the cheesy cards! Valentine’s Day is that one special day we can show extra love and appreciation to all of those special people we have in our lives.  To celebrate Valentines Day, I have a group of talented designers that have created their own special project to showcase. 
We hope you enjoy hopping away and as always we hope to inspire you!

Lluvia will be giving away a grand prize, all you have to do is comment on each of the designer’s blog! Winner will be picked on 2/5, please leave your email address!


If you came from Elecia you are in the right direction!


For my project I made a heart shaped card. It doesn't stand up on it's own and I don't have anything to stand it up with so I took a picture flat. The love birds are a pattern from Scrappy Dew and the rose is a paper rose I made from Scraptastical Kreations.



Now on to Melisa -
