Welcome back, Apron Strings!

We are so thrilled to have Lori from Apron Strings back as a sponsor at The Paper Variety! She has so generously donated the Januaray 2011 "Bigger than a Bteadbox" kit for our challenge this week.

You can read all about the Sweethearts challenge HERE.

Lori says, "We are definitely mid-winter, with most of the country in a deep freeze or buried in snow.  Put that shovel down and snag a warm sweater, a hot drink and your next stack of photos to pair with February Apron Strings Kits.  Starting at just $16 (on autoship) with three kits to choose from there’s a kit to make you and your wallet happy.  Besides the “fillings,” with benefits like unlimited, penalty-free skips, flips and substitutions, any kit is sure to make you happy!  The February kits feature We R Memory Keeper’s Be My Valentine, Fancy Pants Happy Together, Echo Park’s Be Mine, October Afternoon’s Modern Homemaker and My Mind’s Eye Alphabet Soup.  You’ll also get plenty of inspiration in the full-color newsletter filled with great examples from the design team, as well as instructions for up to four layouts and a recipe card (aka sketch) from Becky Fleck. Follow along on the Apron String Blog to get more inspiration, challenges to use your kits (and the chance at Cookie Jar Treats) and peeks of the designer’s work.  Swing by to warm up with sneaks of the February kits and sign-up for a hot Autoship to your favorite kit before you go."

Be sure to play along with this week's challenge before noon on Tuesday for a chance to win one of Lori's fabulous kits! And definitely stop by Apron Strings and shop around! :)

Thanks again Lori!

TGIF! :)
