Valentine's Projects

I want to share with you a few of my creations from Valentine's Day!

Of course my kiddos wanted to do some of the more traditional valentines.
They enjoyed writing their names on them themselves!

This is the box and card I made for my husband. I know, I know - it is very pink but it was for Valentine's Day after all. And he really liked it. The box is sitting on his desk at the office.



I got the pattern for the box from Kirsten's Blogg. You can find a link to her blog
under the inspiration tab on the right.

I think he ate the chocolates in one sitting. LOL!

I know these mailboxes from Target have been a round for several years now but it is always fun to make them. This year all the girls in my youngest son's Pre-K class got them as well as both boy's teachers and one more for a dear co-worker.
The little frog embellies came from HL. Just too cute!!!


This little purse is a cut file from SVGCuts.com. It comes from the Sunny Weekend Purse collection. There is a link to the store under the store tab on the right.
I made this one for another dear co-worker and friend.

These little favor boxes are an SVG file from the SCUT Forum. I made about 40 of them to finish off treats for the boy's friends, for co-workers, and for Jeremy's office secretaries. I really like how they turned out and they were so easy. I was able to make 4 from one 12x12 piece of cardstock. Easy peasy!!!


Of course pink was not going to work for the boys in either of my kids' classes
so I made some from Star Wars paper.



I hope all of you had a wonderful Valentine's Day. I really enjoy this holiday!!!
