How creative. I think my favorite Valentine's were the ones hand made. Happy Valentine's Day!

Gina Ardito aka Katherine Brandon said...

OMG! You are sooooo talented! Jeez, I can't even make a poster for my kids' 100 days of school project without calling in the paramedics to remove my fingers from the Krazy Glue bottle! Beautiful!

Gwen Mitchell said...

OMG - those are gorgeous!!!! Major major kudos, Heather. =)

Your picture at the top reminds me of my favorite Vday. My (then boyfriend) DH had forgotten it for the third year in a row and I was livid. It snowed, and he went out and carved a big heart in it, then we danced in it. *sigh* ... *stops gushing* Anyhoo... Happy VDay and TT!! ~Gwen

Heather said...

Thanks Shelley, Alice, Maggie, Darla, Paige, and Kris!

Jennifer S ~ Thanks! I got that set (Very Punny) for free this time last year, but haven't used it much as the more "cartoony" images aren't really my style. Certainly came in handy for this year's Valentine's!

Jennifer M ~ I can't draw to save my life, but stamping and general papercrafts honestly aren't as hard as it sometimes looks. I have friends whose kids often stamp with us!

Gina ~ My advice? Toss the Krazy Glu and invest in mono-adhesive and glue dots. They're a lot easier and less messier to use! *g*

Gwen ~ What a sweet story, thank you for sharing your Vday memory with us!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Jana said...

Thank you for mine. It's perty. All these are perty, too. ;)

Heather said...

Thank you, Jana! Glad you liked!
