Valentine Mini Album Hop/Swap

Hello Everyone and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion and the Valentine Mini Album Hop/Swap!! Happy Valentine's Day!!!! Thank you so much CallyAnn for hosting this fun hop! You are going to love all the beautiful mini albums that have been created. We all made a mini and then sent it to another person in the hop! 

If you have come from Jearise's blog you are in the right spot. If you have stumbled upon my blog and would like to start at the beginning, please go HERE.  Please be sure to stop and visit each person in the hop so you don't miss a thing.  We also have some yummy blog candy up for grabs:)

Here is my mini:)

I cut the 5 x 5 hearts from the Sweethearts cartridge using my gypsy and cutting them out of a thinner chipboard. I multi cut the chipboard 3x's for them to cut through. I then changed by settings and cut additional hearts out of the pattern paper.  All the pattern paper is from My Minds Eye- Love Me collection.  I used a heart corner punch for the corners of this 3 x 3 mat and pop dotted the 3" bird on that which was cut from the Birthday Bash cartridge. The Happy Valentine's Day sentiment is from My Craft Spot ~Build a Valentine Set. Actually, all of the sentiments in this mini are from this adorable Valentine set. If you are looking for a valentine set to add to your collection..this is a must have! I absolutely love it!

I kept the same pattern going throughout the mini. On the left side, it is a journal mat which is 3x3 along with a little critter. The journal stamp I used is from Autumn Leaves which I stamped in SU Ruby Red.  On the right side is where the photo would go. I have added some pull out tags with a cute saying just to add more fun to the mini.
