Valentine Projects 2013

Wasn't able to complete too many projects this year, but I enjoyed the ones I did. First up is a card I made for another crafty friend of mine. I used Graphic 45's beautiful LADIES' DIARY papers to create this very easy easel card.



Next, I created some special packaging for some of my husband's Valentine treats. Again I used G45's LADIES' DIARY. 


It's become a family tradition to give him Andes for 
pretty much every holiday on the calendar! LOL


Valentines for my 12 year old and 8 year old were a little more challenging this year. Both boys are really into the classic Godzilla movies so, on a whim, I decided to google ''Godzilla Valentines''. And guess what I found??? 


Who knew Godzilla was a popular theme for Valentine's Day????

For my 8 year old....

For my 12 year old!


Lastly, I made another Valentine mini album using a design by Gloria Stengel at Scraps of Life. She's one of my current favorite designers and her project tutorials are super easy to follow. For this project, I used the lovely Valentine collection from Authentique which is called, of course, LOVELY.

This mini measures 6" x 6".

 It's constructed of just a few sheets of cardstock, pretty papers, and 
some embellishments I already had on hand.


Pretty stickpin I made. 

Although it's small, there are several fold outs and plenty of room for photos!

 Another fold out.....

....and another. Lots and lots of room! Thanks, Gloria!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
