In honour of Valentine's Day coming up, this week's word for inspiration is SWEET. You can use the word 'sweet' on your layout (or card), you can scrap about someone/something sweet, you can be inspired by sweets and their colours, you can even choose to spell out the word using product names (such as S is for scalloped circle, W is for watercolouring, E is for Echo Park and so on). Twist is to fussy cut something for your layout/card Thank you nylene for catching that I hadn't included a twist. The twist is to fussy cut an embellishment for your layout. I cut trees out of PP and pop dotted them on top of the same trees for my centre right embellishment I choose to be inspired by sweets and used candy colours for my layout as well as the word 'sweet' on an embellishment and several sweet cookies/gingerbread houses on the paper/embellishments. I fussy cut some of the tree cookies and pop dotted them on the same PP.  |

I love your pages, Linda. Everything about them is SWEET. I love the non-traditional Christmas colors that look wonderful with your photos. Beautiful pages. Is there a twist to this challenge? |

A sweet, sweet LO, Linda, with all the generations, and a great challenge! Hmmmm... I have a sweet pic of a couple of brothers holding a heart which I plan to use for my February calendar page... And a pic of one of them holding a cupcake which I could sneak onto a hockey page and maybe meet this challenge... Need to sort my pic's in the morning. My fingers are itching to get scrapping! |

Made my decision. Here are the sweet boys! For the twist, I fussy cut the big heart out of the pp, then backed it with torn scraps.  February 24 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr This is a lift of a page I saw shared on the Q-1 Sharing Thread. Will include my inspiration when I share there. |

grammadee, I left love in the gallery. Cute boys on a cute layout. breetheflea, you had the perfect photos for this challenge. I love the paper you used to mat the photos. It makes them stand out and gives them a stitched look on the edges. I love that punched border on top and bottom. Your clusters are great. I love the numbers on the ice cream cone. Very clever! This is mine. For the twist I fussy cut the white edges off the chipboard butterflies.  Sweet Valentine

nylene - oh she is the sweetest looking baby! Love the white heart background and the butterflies! Thanks for playing! I forgot to mention I scraplifted your cut heart background and found that I had one in my designs. Thanks for the inspiration. I didn't do the twist on this one. The only Valentine song I could think of was My Funny Valentine and I wanted to use SWEET. Thanks for hosting this challenge. I love it. |
