When I received my latest copy of Scrapbooking Memories in the mail last week I thought I'd use the FREE paper Insert to try and create something a little different this year for Rod for Valentine's Day.....
Normally when i think of Valentine's Day I think of hearts,flowers,love....and for some reason I also love to usually do my Valentine's Cards using red,white and black.....but not this year.....LOL! I went with this vintage paper and just had fun playing around.....the heart on the front was inked around and some 3 -D foam placed underneath....I punched this from another part of the FREE paper....
I did get out my trusty FISKARS PUNCHES..
1. My Funny Valentine Heart Squeeze Punch
2. Lace Border Punch
3. 1" Circle Squeeze Punch
I also searched through my stash and found these double sided flourish stickers...so I added them and then sprinkled embossing powder over the top.... So what do you think?
I challenge you to go outside your comfort zone this year and try something a little different when creating a project!!....Push those boundaries....if you would like to share what you have done then feel free to email some pics through.....
You can see more Valentine shares here (Debbie) here (Robyn) and here (Dianne) there are more to come...so keep popping back here as we hope we can INSPIRE you to create your own handmade Project this year!
xoxo

My pleasure...it's a great effort and one that will make people and the planet healthier!
Any plans to duplicated efforts in or around Hartford? There are lots of folks up there who would love more farmers markets up that way.
