I am SO excited ! As I write this, my daughter and
granddaughters are driving down from Fresno (about six hours away) to spend the
weekend with me!!
I have been busy
baking cookies and other goodies (stay tuned!) and making Valentine cards for
them so we can celebrate early! They are
12 and 6 and such fun. The oldest one has been wanting to learn latch hook, so I
got her a panda bear rug and we will have
lessons this weekend! Pandas are
her favorite thing this week! Actually that love has lasted the past six months
– so hopefully she will love the rug. And the youngest will get a smaller sun
and rainbow latch hook to do. Of course
they both have to have similar gifts!
For their Valentine
cards, I put my Silver Bullet Professional to work cutting a Scrappy Dew file
called “Be Mine”. And I used one of
Penny Duncan’s amazing shapelie files for the background. I thought these bears were so cute, so just
accented them in different shades of pink and added dimension with foam tape.
In the closeup, you
can see the shining eyes – they are accented with Glossy Accents, and the nose
has black Sparkle Fluff to stand out!
The paws and ears are accented with Distress Inks. And I double cut the paws so they would pop
up a little.
I also used the
Stardust pen to accent the letters and bow to give them some sparkle! I love bling!
My papers of choice
are almost always from Paper Temptress – she has the BEST papers and service!
And it was a perfect pairing with the Scrappy Dew file.
Here are the wrapped
gifts with the cards, all ready for the girls to tear them open!!
