Happy Valentines day everyone ! Christin here and I am bringing nothing but LOVE with the January Hip kits .  Here in Norway it’s also Mother’s Day today.  Here and in no other country in the world are we celebrating this day the second Sunday in February each year…

My starting point for this layout was the weekly sketch drawn by  Ashley Horton shared on in the Hip Kit FB forum. In stead of circles I drew hearts inside each other and the other hearts in the sketch I put outside the nested hearts.  I often redraw sketches to suit my needs and own sketches – even pretty close to the original for some reason is easier to work with.

Here is the original sketch.

I added lots of different fonts with the word Love all over the page. This wood veneer I embossed with gold embossing, that way you get such a lovely glossy look.

I cut my layers of paper to be added to my black nested hearts and I drew with a black pen to add some contrast.

Again, have a happy Valentine’s Day !
