OMG how I have been looking forward to this spread!!!! I hoenstly have been just waiting for January to be over so that I could not only start my February spreads, but so I could specifically do my Valentine spread. I feel like this week is particularly special to me for multiple reasons. As someone who is in a relationship, I honestly look so forward to Valentine's day, I love giving gifts, I love seeing the face of someone opening and loving their gift, it just brings me so much joy. But aside from that, February 14 is also my anniversary with my boyfriend, it'll be three years this time around, which like who wouldn't be excited about having made it another 365 days with their significant other? And to top it off, not only is it a special day and a holiday (I know some will disagree but I will just call it that for lack of a better word) but I always get to go home on Valentine weekend because that following Monday is a holiday, which means no school. So this is the first time I get to go home since winter break, I get to celebrate two current occasions but I also get to celebrate my dad's birthday with him and my family (it's a week before Valentine's day so I am always a little late but nonetheless it is appreciated).
But now to contain my excitement and talk about the spread. So again, I combined shops, sorry. I had a vision in my head of what I wanted to do for this week and so I was shoppnig around but I just could not find the colors, look or decor that I had pictured so I discarded my vision and I found the Valentine's Romance Sampler from VintageGypsyRoad on Etsy. I really loved the red and sexy vibe it gave off but it was a sampler, so it only had two full boxes. Now maybe on a regular week I wouldn't have been super picky, but this was a special week, I wanted to go all out and I really wanted to decorate so I added it to my cart and continued the search. And on PlannerKate1 on Etsy, I found Valentine Heart Full Boxes, which had 8 full boxes. I was like perfect, but what I like to do when combining shops is sort of envision and be realistic as to what goes with what and where I will use it all. So at this point I had full boxes and some decor but I didn't have any headers or checklists so I went to my trustwworthy friend on Basic Planning and ordered just a February weekly kit and those would be my headers and ombre heart checklists. But I sort of counted the full boxes and realized I really only had 9 full boxes and because I was feeling excessive and really wanted to decorate I continued on the search for a few more full boxes and found GeorgiaPeachPaperCo. She had like a mini weekly kit, Valentine's Day Themed Planner Stickers and I thought that was perfect! And now finally decor, I did have a few items on the VGR smapler but of course, I wanted more, so on TwoToPlan I found very similar stickers to the VGR ones so I ordered the Hung Up On You Decorative Phrases and the Hung Up On You Decorative Stickers. I ordered them all and then patitently waited.
Now for the layout. To Do and Today headers ombre heart checklists, red half box and custom made heart checklist, Spent and Blog headers are all from Basic Planning. The full boxes will be kind of hard to distinguish because they're from three different shops but I will say they're all from either Georgia Peach Paper Co, VGR, or Planner Kate 1. The pink heart checklists, To Buy and To Do headers in the corner are from Georgia Peach Paper Co. The weekend banner, the half boxes and all the cute headers (I Love You, Forever, Hug Me, Kiss Me, Be Mine, and Date Night) are from VGR. The payday sticker is from PlannerGlitz.com. All of the decor stickers, including the cute little phrases at the bottom, are from Two To Plan. And lastly, the red glitter washi is from Scotch but I bought mine at target.

I really love the whole sexy and hot Valentine theme I think it's funny and different than just the typical cutesy hearts and red theme, it adds a bit of a kick.
I'm very sad Valentine will be over after this but I will still be doing cute pink and red weekly themes for the remaining two weeks of February. So I hope you enjoyed and I wil see yu next week (if you're only here for planner spreads).
Love,
Bee
