Valentine's Day Virtual Blog Hop

Good afternoon!! I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine's Day. I just love Valentine's as I have the most romantic hubby in the world *dripping sarcasm* I'll just push that little nugget back under the rug where it doesn't cause any problems, LOL!! He is being forced to watch The Notebook with me tonight :D :D :D 

Anyhoooooooo onto the reason you are here - Welcome to our Valentine's Day blog hop. The very lovely and very talented Taylor came up with this idea and it just grew and grew!! We now have almost 50 blogs participating and 19 sponsors giving away 21 prizes. Winners will be picked at random from various blogs in the hop. You have until Thursday at 6:00 PM EST to comment on all of the blogs and winners will be announced on Friday.

If you've arrived here from Maria's blog then you're on the right path. If not, then hop back to Taylor's blog where the hop begins. 

I made a sweet Valentine Tag and I've posted the tutorial for this over on the Whiff of Joy Inspirations blog, and I am also entering it into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge which is Anything but a Card.
