Valentines Card

I got this fun die that is the popular window frame. It is made from Poppy Stamps. It seems to be pretty popular as I have started to see a lot of cards using it. The background stamp is from PTI Table Service.

Valentines Day

I made this "Be Mine" banner for Valentines decoration with my mom. It's fun to have something up that's pink and lovey-dovey. It hangs over our stairs so it's in a central place in our house. I haven't quite figured out what to do with that space yet, so something short term will keep me tied over till I can figure it out. My mom spiced it up with the sparkle letters, it was fun doing something crafty for v-day! (thanks pinterest for the idea!)

Happy Valentines Day!

(if you have a cricut I used the stretch your imagination cartridge)

We love you SNOW much!

I created this card to say "thank you" for all the wonderful meals and gifts that were brought to us after we had our baby. I used a pink and red theme and delivered or mailed them around the Valentine's holiday. Hence the "love you" in the inside.

I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the front "thank you" embossing and the snow friends cart for the little guy on top.  I was excited to get this cart, but I'll tell you, making more than about 2 of these snowmen takes the fun out of card making. This cart is better made for my mom's one-of-a-kind cards, than my taste for mass production.

Here was the inside I just designed on the computer and printed out.

You are DINO-MITE!

Here are the Valentines I made for my son's kindergarten class! I'm SOOOO not into Batman and Dora, so these were a must-do for the LOVE holiday. Knowing they were just going to get chucked, I kept them simple. We taped a candy to the back of each one and my son signed his name on the fronts. They probably took the same amount of time to make as going to the store to buy.  I used an insert shape from Fabulous Finds for the heart and the dinosaurs are all from Paper Dolls Dress Up.
