Today's the Day! Our Craft Lounge Blog Hop and Candy Giveaway reveal!




Oh my gosh! When I first saw this set, I laughed out LOUD!!! Hang it up Cupid!!!! Now THAT is hilarious!!! I've heard a LOT of people and even those in loving relationships, say that they are not a celebrator of Saint Valentines Day! The reason? some say that it's a money grab, that the retailers just monopolize on an occasion that should be celebrated every day, which brings me to the second rationale that i've heard.........Every day in a relationship should be Valentines Day, that we should always treat our partner with the utmost of love and respect and that we don't need a holiday for that.............makes some sense, but pshaw!!!! Bring on the Chocolates and Wine and Romantic dinner....................I'm game.........but wait a minute, if we no longer celebrate Valentines Day and act accordingly with our partners EVERY day................well maybe that would be a lifetime supply of wine and chocolate.........oh my, I just visualize myself flopped out in a brick alleyway having gained all my weight back, and reeking of Valpolicella (that's MASI)...........WHICH would be my favourite wine, JUST in case someone special is READING this..............Or well if anyone feels compelled to send me a gift!!!! Okay enough silly babble........when I get on a tangent, I get ON a tangent!!!! lol

So this set is called Hang it up Cupid and I LOVE it.......................I used some Rusty Pickle DP as a border for this card as well as some K&CO that I purchased in a Valentined Themed Pad last year. The card worked up very fast, as the colouring is minimal. I used some Pink Sparkly Fluff on her Bow and Eyepatch..........a product exclusively from Our Craft Lounge.





Here is the set in it's entirety............How Cute eh?
