It's February, friends, and with Valentine's Day just around the corner, I thought this trigger from Alicia Thelin would be just perfect!
Alicia says:
I ran across this little beauty today, and BAM! Easy card done. Of course these adorable framed lovelies struck me as perfect gifts for Valentines Day, but holy heck, what a great concept for decor for all seasons! I have some old books that I will scan and use to make some unique pieces and suit them to the recipient. LOVE IT.
Here is the card she created from her inspiration:
More from Alicia:
The card is made with an 8" x 8" patterned paper from Fancy Pants, The Daily Grind. This made it super easy to create six hearts in coordinating patterned papers on my Cricut. There is one sheet that has 12 different "tags" that are all different patterns, I cut a 1" heart from each pattern of my choice. This is totally going to be my husband's V-Day card.
Nice job, Alicia! I can't wait to see what kinds of fun creations and original approaches all y'all come up with on this one!
Before I run off to post Day 1 of CHA Week, this week's Trigger Targets from Tina Fussell's I Feel Pretty in Turquoise in Gold trigger include: Jacqueline, Amy(rohla), ScrappyA (Alicia), Lisa Forsythe, Mariana Grigsby, Rae Barthel, Deanna (Dee Woodland), Windy Robinson, and Ryann Salamon. There were a TON of great approaches to this trigger! Thanks to everyone who played!
OK. I've got a lot yet to do still. I'll see you soon with Day 1 of CHA Week!
All triggered up,
~Cath

I really like this week's trigger...I'm sure this is one I can actually accomplish. Was wondering if you are seeing alot of "giant" bows in trends this year? I am noticing lots of oversized bows on cards these days. Not sure if I like it or not.
Thanks Cath for the shout-out! I'm am loving this week's TT! And I am IN LOVE with the new banner. *swoon*
Giddy here in WI, Cath! Thanks for the TT shout, yeah!!
