Valentine Dreaming

Hello All
Happy Saturday!
What a bright and shiny new day to experience!

How wonderful that at this time more people are focused on Love more than any other time of the year. Little children are creating and signing their cards to other little children, lovers are wondering what would be a romantic way to say "I love you" to their significant other. Some of us older romantics are basking in the knowledge that our long times loves are the greatest teachers we have ever known.

To feel loved is such an incredible feeling. To share love is a great joy.
I love having this special day to increase my desire to do both!
In fact, how about we have some more days created just to focus on LOVE!

Here is a hanging Valentine's Day card I have made to show someone that I love them.

Have a lovely weekend!
Hugs,
Terri

Valentine Creativity

Hello All!

I have been playing with some romantic ideas for Valentines day. These little boxes are sweet and just the right size for a pair of earring, a small necklace or some little notes of love written out on strips of parchment.

They are very easy to do. I bought some heart shaped boxes from a craft store and painted them with Gesso, then the color of my choice. I did not paint the top of the box though, I left that free for the image I had chosen to glue on with tacky glue. I also glued on a strip of vintage lace trim around the lid. Then I used Diamond Glaze just along the outer edges to adhere a string of vintage rhinestones. When that was dry, I filled in the center with more Diamond Glaze (let it dry overnight). I used a thin line of Stickles just below the rhinestones on the outer edge.

More Valentine crafting to come!
Hugs,
Terri
