This is my very first blog hop and I am glad cupid came my way early.  As Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, most men prepare for this day with roses, chocolate, dinner, card and maybe an extra treat. I wanted to set the scene by creating a mist clipboard vase with roses, ribbons and a little bling. In addition, I saw this cute crush rose box on the SVGcuts.com forum and thought it would finish off my project. I absolutely love purple and white roses over red, so it it fit my project perfectly.

·         BIA and 4-10 rings Zutter baby pink owire to bind the 4-trapezoid sides

·         Hot glue the square to the bottom of enclosed trapezoids

·         Decorate with embellishments, I use ACMOORE silk roses, MICHAELS Valentines purple/red/pink heart, ribbon and K&Company’s Elegant Swirl

The LOVE sign:

·         ACMOORE wood LOVE  sign

·         Mask/Ink the  sign(I used Inkadinkado Spray Ink –colors Lilac, Rasberry and Royal Blue and Tsukineko Shimmer Spritz-Silver) to  your desired coating, bloat excessive ink and allow it to dry
