Do you buy valentine paper?

I don't usually buy any. I don't usually have photos to scrap and I usually don't make Valentine Cards! But I'm tempted to buy a few sheets because I really like Echo Park's new collection "Head Over Heals"
and Elle's Studio's "Love You More"!
Do you buy much?

I don't normally buy Valentine's Day papers, but I did last year and made Hubby a "10 Things I Love About You" mini album just because I fell in love with some papers I found.
I love the Head Over Heels collection! May end up picking some up just because

I usually don't either with the same reasons as yours. But with that said, that paper is CUTE!

i do..but with a house full of girls it tends to lend itself to many other things.....
I used the Elle's "love you more" for my last layout...it wasn't valentines day but lovey stuff so it works
I also love to use hearts on my layouts
I used the bo bunny line for a pic of middle dd's twin cat and rabbit..........worked perfect
sometimes its just how you see the theme of the paper

That's what I'm thinking about some of these papers in these collections, that they are great for the "everyday"!!! I love collections like that!!

Yeah not so much Valentine specific, I would also likely gravitate the pretty prints like you have posted, I agree that they are more versatile for other projects and really love the multicoloured hearts print too! .
I don't really care for the wordy ones something like this:

I buy more than I use, but that can probably be said for lots of my pp's, lol. But I do scrap Valentine's Day, usually gifts I give my kids or their school parties. I also use the papers for other themed pages, too.

I buy it. I usually use it on layouts. I'm going to make cards for my grandkids this year.

I never (ever) buy it so I have no stash of it. Thing is, this year I need some. All I need is a sheet or two. I will see what I can find that I like.

I usually don't, but did buy the Fancy Pants offering for Valentines. It's super cute for DD and her boyfriend, or just pictures of how much I love them without the word "Valentine" on there...

I don't buy Valentine papers or products. I don't do mushy and we don't "do" Valentine's day in our home. Just not my holiday.

Yes, I do, but I'm a paper hoarder!!! LOL I also use it for other than valentines layouts. I have a dd and 3 neices so I tend to fit it in on the girly layouts!

This is me too. I recently picked up the entire Doodlebug Sweetheart line, as I am a Doodlebug hoarder too
Plus I love how it mixes brown with the pinks and reds!

Not any more. When DD was in Elementary school they exchanged cards and I use to dress her up in a Valentine's Day dress and take pictures. One year I made PINK pancakes for Valentine's Day breakfast. I used to decorate the house too. So, one more holiday I won't be celebrating.

Not usually because I'm not a fan of pink, but I had to have every piece of the Cupid's Arrow collection by MME (and I LOVE it). I'm also getting Black & White from Glitz...I sure hope ACOT gets it!!

I do! I'm a sucker for anything pink and anything with hearts on it - so, basically, everything and anything Valentine's Day related. I use the products on general "love" layouts, not just for Valentine's Day projects.

That line is adorable!
I don't normally purchase things for Valentine's Day projects.
If you like that line...I would buy it and use it as you would everyday papers.
