Love Song Blog Hop


Welcome to PaperCraftingWorld.com & CookingWithCricut.com's Love Song Blog Hop! Love is in the air and the Design Team have come up with some great Valentine's Day projects inspired by our favorite Love Songs.
If you arrived here from visiting the lovely Heather @ The Hunny Pot you're in the right place. If you're joining us mid-hop and would like to start at the beginning click here to go to Paper Crafting World’s Cooking With Cricut blog and check out what Melin has made!
I was inspired by My Wedding Song, 
"At Last..." by the late Etta James. 
This is a Timeless classic to me and I can never get tired of hearing it. May she rest in peace. Such a wonderful, gifted voice. It takes me back to that one magical moment when I walked down the aisle to be with my Best Friend, Confidant and Partner for LIFE! We both have not look back since. We're 7yrs in and still smooching along...(lol).
Anyway, and this is what I created . . .
Recipe:
Cart = Sweethearts Cartridge
Paper = SU & Recollections
Tools = Musical Notes Embossing Folder, SU-Heart-to-Heart Punch, Inkadinkado Stamps, MCT Stitched Oval Die
Embellies = Stickles, MS Chalk Ink(Brights), Memento Ink(Black)
We don't want to have all the fun by ourselves so, we hope you’ll join us and link up your favorite love song inspired project at CookingWithCricut.com. One lucky entry will be chosen by random.org to win a $15.00 gift certificate provided by PaperCraftingWorld.com! And make sure you leave a comment, too! One lucky commenter will also receive a $15.00 PaperCraftingWorld.com gift certificate!
Now for some more Blog Candy, make sure you comment on each person's site for both Saturday & Sunday. I will have some Mystery Blog Candy to giveaway for this Blog Hop. It will be well worth it so don't pass this up. I will draw a winner on Tuesday, February 14th so you have plenty of time to leave your comments, but don't wait too long.

  24. Very nice card- I was using that embossing folder last night and didn't think about inking after embossing but I love how it turned out- when I do the rest of the elements for the grouping I was completing I will have to try doing that. rlovew1976@yahoo.com
