New Years Valentines ~


Happy New Years everyone!
Thank you for being part of a wonderful year!
Wishing you a joyous, bright, creative & sparkly year ahead!

As promised here is a new kit and a giveaway ~

The Sweetheart Decor Box


It's filled with oodles and oodles of Ruffle Crepe Trim in deliciously romantic colors, and lots of other goodies to decorate endless Valentine projects and cards!
Leave a comment on this post ~ winner will be drawn January 16th!

Did you see the newest issue of Sommerset Life Winter Edition?


Here's a peek inside at my lavender hearts sewn from vintage French fabrics ~

...and just inside the front cover you will see this fun ad for Lollishops; be sure to check out all the wonderful vendors and their lovely Valentine wares!


Those of you who are Jenni Bowlin fans ~ and I know there are lots of you, may be swooning over her recent kit! Jenni has such a distinct sense of style and color, not the expected, and her newest kit does not disappoint! It is Valentine-y without being overtly frilly. Included in kit is my Petite Double Ruffle Trim in Dove Grey ~ thanks Jenni!

Whew, if you're still with me ~ don't forget to leave a comment for the very sweet giveaway!

Best of luck!
xo Heidi

P.S. Check back around the first of every month for a new giveaway!

And, speaking of Somerset Life.....I drove 45 minutes (each way) yesterday, hoping to get it at the nearest Barnes and Noble. No luck. Such a bummer to live where we do at times! I love getting their mags and seeing articles on the blogs I frequent!

Geralyn Gray said...

Happy new year valentines!!!! Went to B&N today to get the new somerset life-----not there...I'll have to try another one tomorrow.

Birds of a Feather said...

Locally my Borders Books, Barnes & Noble and Michael's and sometimes AC Moore carry the Somerset Life mag ~ sorry so many are having trouble finding a copy! Maybe ask if it is available, sometimes they will ship it to you or hold it when they get it in ~ good luck!
