Valentine cards

My mom and I attended a Stampin up workshop on Friday and this is what I made: 

I'm filling the heart card with candy and giving it to my hubby for Valentine's Day.  The class was so much fun!  I am considering becoming a Stampin Up Demonstrater so I could have fun workshops all the time.

Valentine Chair Backer

I love traditions.  One of the traditions we do for valentines day in our home is put out mini mailboxes for each family member.  Throughout the day we each put in goodies and messages to each other.  After dinner we read our love notes and eat our goodies.  The problem with this idea is that the mini mailboxes get full right away and not too much stuff fits.

So, this year I wanted to make some valentine chair backers that could fit a whole lot of stuff.   I found this great blog www.ourscoop.blogspot.com that has a great tutorial.  So far, I have completed two bags and have three more to go.  Here is my work in progress (WIP):

Cassandra's chair (her bag fits on her special needs chair)

I still have Alexis', Isabelle's and mama's bag to complete.

Valentine door wreath

I finally finished working on our Valentine door wreath.  I was really pleased with it and it didn't cost a thing.  I used an old wreath and covered it with black satin fabric I had in my stash.  I then used red felt I had left over from a previous project and made very simple flowers.  I hot glued them on and voila, valentine door wreath.
