Ok so I've decided to make 2 projects for this hop the first will be here for days 1 and 2, so make sure and check for a new project on day 3 for a new project.
I created a Altered Frame using the Cupid cuties pattern from our sponsor Designs on Cloud 9. I think it turned out super cute!  Altered frames are a very easy and inexpensive way to decorate your home for any holiday.
This happens to be a wooden frame I picked up at Michael's for $1, added the paper, an adorable paper piecing and bow...super super easy!!!




Now I will also be given away some blog candy....One lucky winner will have their choice of either the frame pictured or Day 3-4 Project, the choice will be yours...
