Valentine Blog Hop

Welcome to the Valentine Blog Hop!
This hop is about sharing the love we have for our family, friends, co-workers, and crafty bloggers. Enjoy the creativity, get inspired, spread some crafty love, and then pass it on.

There are ten stops and you won't want to miss any of them! I am the first stop, so I am glad you have joined us. There is also a complete line-up at the end of this post just in case you need it. 

What would a hop be without Blog Candy?!?! Since we LOVE our crafty friends, each blog has a bit of candy that needs to be won. Thank goodness for candy!

And Here's How:
Be sure to be a FOLLOWER and COMMENT on each blog.
If you are a follower, your comment could be randomly drawn to win some fantastic prizes. Read each blog post carefully to see what is being offered at each stop along the way. 

Here is my project:

I decorated 20 black gift bags...one per student. I bought some stickers, a notepad, and a pencil for each student's bag. There are a few students that volunteered to bring in candy, which will go in the bags too. I may make a tag for each bag, but not put individual student's name on it.

I used a scalloped heart (about 6") from SVG Cutting Files and a mailbox from SVG Cuts ~ 24 Valentines Kit. The envelope actually pulls out.  I cut all the pieces with my Cameo.

Each bag will be used for the student's Valentines that they get to pass out to each other. We are also having a class party on Tuesday with cookies, brownies, cupcakes, chips, fruit, and drinks. The students will be able to open their Valentine's from each other and then I am planning a game. 

This is the prize being offered on my page:
It's a surprise, but don't worry...I love to share crafty goodies. 

Remember to win, you need to be a follower of my blog and leave a comment!
You have until Sunday night, February 12th at 8:00 pm EST to hop along with us! All winners will be announced on Monday, February 13th on each individual blog. The winners will also be posted on Carson's Creations Facebook page after all the winner's posts go live on each blog.

Here's the complete hop line-up in case you need to start at the beginning. Enjoy!

Thank you for hopping along with us today! Your next stop is Janis.

Happy Early Valentine's Day,

  45. Just an FYI - every single one of these that I was not a follower of before, refused to allow me to sign in as a new follower. Every one. That's not quite fair. I even went back to them later, after commenting, and it still would not allow as a new follower.
