bdlakebum stamps: Papertrey January Blog Hop Challenge

With February just around the corner, it's time to start making Valentines for our friends and loved ones. Papertrey Ink inspired me with their awesome challenge here. Don't these images just put you in the "lovey dovey" spirit?

My favorite is the multi-colored hearts that look similar to the bokeh technique. Without further ado, here is my creation made especially for my dear husband. He is so supportive of my crafting time I just know he'll appreciate my effort.

(and here's the inside)

Since I'm sure this will be a big Blog Hop today, I won't keep you here so you can admire lots of other posts. Have a lovely day!
