{ January Studio AE from Technique Tuesday Blog Hop }

Welcome to our January Studio AE Blog Hop.

Today we are featuring projects made with the Studio AE - Be Mine - January 2013.

Here is my layout.

Pretty simple layout using the stamp set. I designed my layout in Silhouette Studio and then I cut the pieces. The photo strip I created and it’s perfect for 2x2” photos. The hearts are from before that I used on this layout here. They are still available for download HERE.

I stamped the hearts and “love” from the stamp set and cut them out. “Together” is my own written word that I wrote in Silhouette Studio and cut out. “Love you” at the bottom is from All My Love by Ali Edwards stamp set.

***Make sure you check out all the blogs because we are giving away a $25.00 gift certificate to Technique Tuesday. That means you can get anything you want.***
The winners will be announced on the Technique Tuesday blog on the 13th.
