Happy Valentine's Day

 Today I am sharing a gift I made for my Husband for Valentine's day "52 Reasons Why I Love You". I am sure you have seen this on Pinterest or a blog already but I thought it was a fun gift to make.    I have to admit it was not that easy coming up with 52 reason why I Love my husband.  Not that I don't have 52 reasons ( I came up with more than 52)  but it's not as easy as it seems....LOL 

I took a deck of cards and sanded them.  Using inks I distressed
the fronts and backs of the cards to give them a vintage look.   

I punched holes in the cards and attached the red CS.

I typed up the 52 reasons, cut them out, distressed them
 and glued them to the red CS.

I added small hearts to the backside of the cards. 

I attached a set of rings to hold the cards together. 

I hope you try this idea.  It's really fun thinking of all the reasons why you love someone.  I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's day today.

 Hello everyone.  Hope your day is going well so far.  Today's card is a Valentines card I made for my husband.

The stamp sets are from CTMH.  I used browns and blues
to distress the card and then stamped the designs. 

I added tulle to the back of the heart. 

Sending you heartfelt smiles today!!  Have a super great day.

Thank You Crafting Night

  I have lots of pictures to share with you today so go get a cup of coffee, sit and relax.  As you all know I am a Close to My Heart consultant. I wanted to let my customers know how much I appreciated them so I invited them to a Ladies Crafting Night at my home.  It was so much fun!  We ate, crafted, laughed, talked and just enjoyed the night.  THANK YOU Ladies for supporting my business, but more importantly THANK YOU for sharing your time and talent with me!!!   

A bite to eat before the crafting starts.

Happy Monday to you!  Today I am sharing a Hedgehog birthday card with you.  The Hedgehog stamp set is from CTMH and he is a cutie.  

I stamped the hedgehog, colored him with pencils and cut him out.  

I added  some glitter to the balloons.

The birthday hat was cut from the pattern paper and attached
with some foam adhesive.
