Every year, just as Valentines Day is approaching, I love to rediscover all the sweet projects from our design teams, past and present. I always find an abundance of Valentines from Kristin at
PaperCreationsByKristin.blogspot.com. I invited her to be my “Guest Designer” today and I couldn’t be happier to share a small sampling of her awesome paper crafting.

Don’t you just love this classic look on the Hearts-n-Bows card? All pinks and reds and lace and love.

| Pencil Box Valentine Paper Creations by Kristin |
The 3D Pencil Box will hold several candies or other goodies. Instead of using traditional yellows, Kristin chose pink and red papers and added the tag with a fun pun,
“Valentine, You’re all ‘write’ with me.”

| Pencil Valentines Paper Creations by Kristin |
Pencils are perfect for classroom treats. The dollar stores always have packs of Valentine pencils so it’s an inexpensive treat when you have many to make. Kristin used the front of the Pencil Card, used bright Valentine colors for the paper, then cut slits to insert the pencils.

| Valentine Baby Cupid Box Paper Creations by Kristin |
Kristin combined a few different cutting files from My Scrap Chick to create this little cupid belly box. It was so darn cute we made a new item, Cupid Belly Treat Box, with all the parts and pieces in one design. It continues to be one for the most popular Valentine box.

| Valentine Mailbox Paper Creations by Kristin |
Sending love notes and Valentine cards are what the day this day is all about. So of course Mailboxes are a popular symbol for receiving those notes, cards and the small nuggets of chocolate goodies. The Mailbox comes with quick little Valentines too.
Kristin is a prolific and highly creative paper crafter and great photographer to boot so I guarantee you will enjoy browsing her blog at Paper Creations by Kristin and facebook page. And she obviously LOVES Valentines Day so I hope you will leave her some love in the comments.
Thank you Kristin for allowing us to share your wonderful projects.
