Updated 2/20/14: Congratulations to Kim -- you're the winner of my giveaway for this blog hop! Email me at MightyCraftyATgmailDOTcom to claim your prize. :)

 It's time for the February blog hop for Practical Scrappers. I'm so excited to be a part of it! There is a huge group of awesome and talented designers for you to hop around to. This month, our theme is Valentine's Day in honor of the holiday today and have great projects for you to see. It's a big, big list -- and you can enter for a giveaway back on the Practical Scrappers blog.

Here's where we are on the blog hop list right now (head back to Practical Scrappers for the full list):

• Charity Hotrum **You should have come from Charity's blog
• Lissa Mitchell **You are here :)

A lot of the designers are doing their own giveaways too -- including me! It's just a fun way for me to say thank you to all of you, my new readers and long-time readers. Read on to find out how to enter my giveaway...

For the blog hop, I created a set of Valentine's Day cards.

I used my February kit and my Kiwi Lane designer templates to create these cards -- so quick and easy!

I started by framing out a sample card with the templates:

Then, it was just a matter of tracing, cutting, and inking my border strips from the patterned papers in my kit. Super easy! I added a big heart or flower from the Kiwi Lane Tiny Sweetheart accessory set and a heart rhinestone from Freckled Fawn. I love how they turned out!

These cards are already on their way to their intended recipients. I know they will be appreciated on this special day. :)

And now for the prizes...I'm giving away this awesome group of fun scrapbooking supplies.

To enter to win, just do one of these:

Now, head on over to the next stop on the blog hop. Have fun!
