Time for another Fantabulous Cricut Crawl!

Welcome to Brenda's Scrappy Blog and the fourth Fantabulous Cricut Crawl...Fantabulous Cricut's version of a blog hop!

Valentine's Day is in a week and everyone at Fantabulous Cricut has decided to Share the Love! Each Design Team member will be featuring an original Valentine-themed project that includes the word LOVE somewhere on it.

If you've come from visiting the creative Angji's blog , you're in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Fantabulous Cricut Crawl, start HERE.

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration! There will be PRIZES along the way at some of our DT members' blogs, AND there will be a Grand Prize up for grabs at FCCB for one participant that submits a "Share the Love" project at FCCB!

For my project, I made a simple "love" panel set that I can display on a shelf in my kitchen. I used George & Basic Shapes for the rounded squares, cut at 4", and Cindy Loo for the alphas, cut at 3". I used design studio to place the letters inside the squares, weld them together, and cut from red cardstock. Plain squares were cut from red cardstock, chipboard, and pink cardstock. The panels were layered this way: plain red cardstock, chipboard, pink cardstock, red cardstock with the alphas cut out. I punched holes in the panels and tied them together with ribbons, then added some buttons,red pearls, and a little metal heart.



Now for the fun prize part! There will be a little RAK for one participant on my blog. All you have to do is post a comment here and let me know your favorite Valentine's sweet treat....after all, what's Valentines Day without something sweet!

We're anxiious to see your Share the Love projects! Make sure to include a Cricut cut somewhere on your project and the word "Love" and link them back to the FCCB blog.

Your next stop on the blog hop is Candace's blog. She always has wonderful projects posted, so go see what she has in store for you today... And when you're done, make sure to link up your project to FCCB's Fantabulous Cricut Crawl post to be entered into the contest!

Happy Crawling - and Happy Valentine's Day!

I love your panel - I think I will make one for my daughter - she is moving to a new house and I think it will look good on a shelf there.
thanks for the great idea.
a treat for Velentines would be lots of chocolate and a take away so I won't have to do any cooking :)

Melinda said...

I am new to these blog crawls..what a great idea. I love this panel idea... it gives me a few ideas of my own. Thank you. My sweet treat is yummy dark chocolate and a hot stone massage... that is LOVE.

Cute chipboard project! I love the buttons with ribbon, such a sweet touch. my fav Valentine treat is probably a satin heart box filled with truffles from See's Candies! I don't think I've ever gotten one, but if I'm gonna be spoiled on Valentine's Day, I think it would be very nice!;)
