Welcome to the Based on A Book Blog Hop if you came here from Ashley then you are definitely in the right place. Didn't she have an amazing project. Now Everyone loves a good book. I got a Kindle Fire for Christmas well my husband did when he sold his iPad. But it ended up going to me. LOL. I have been reading more ever since. 

Today we are celebrating everyone's love of literature. I had a hard time choosing just one book to share with you today. But since I love this book as it teaches me  to do nice things for my husband - I chose The Love Dare by Stephen Kendrick and Alex Kendrick. This book has truly changed our marriage but here is the write up from Amazon.

 "The Love Dare, as featured in the popular new movie Fireproof (from the makers of Facing the Giants), is a 40-day challenge for husbands and wives to understand and practice unconditional love. Whether your marriage is hanging by a thread or healthy and strong, The Love Dare is a journey you need to take. It’s time to learn the keys to finding true intimacy and developing a dynamic marriage. Take the dare!"

One of the most important things to me next to my relationship with Jesus is my husband. He is truly an amazing man of God and I am so blessed that He chose me to be his wife. So in honor of him and the commitment I make to continually working on our marriage. 

To make this project I used my Cricut Imagine and Cricut Craft Room. 

Here is your cartridge List:

Cricut Lite Lacey Labels - Scalloped Square cut at 3.7 inches

             -Love cut at 2 inches

-label cut at 1.3 in white and 1.5 in Music paper

Cricut Imagine Imagine More - Music paper 

Cricut Craft Room Basics - Heart cut at 1 inches

CardzTV Stamps Encouraging Thoughts - Hugs and Kisses and X's and O's

To assemble this card it was very quick. I inked around all the edges of LOVE with Chocolate brown ink, then I inked around the heart and stamped a sentiment from CardzTV Stamps Encouraging Thoughts X&O's on the Heart in Walnut Stain ink. 

The base is a sheet of 12x12 red cardstock cut at 4 1/2 by 12 inches. 

Then I accented the inside with the Label cut from Lacey Labels and stamped Hugs and Kisses. 

I think it makes a beautiful card and gift to show that someone that you love them. It made my husband smile. I also had a song played for him on a live webshow. He was so touched. It's important to do little things like this for those you love. 

To win the overall blog candy which is a book of your choice from our wonderful hostess Tanya leave a comment on all blogs and then on the final stop which is Tanya - leave a comment what book you have been wanting to read but you haven't gotten it yet.  

I also have blog candy and it is running for the month of January. Last month I had over 300 comments. I can't wait to see if January beats that.

It is a $5 gift card to Amazon.com - the best place to buy books. 

Thanks for joining me. 

Okay now onto your next Book stop Jamie at http://myamusinglife.blogspot.com
