My Valentine, my husband will be away on a work trip this Valentines Day - but that didn't stop the kids and I in putting together some sweet treats and making a beautiful craft for him.
A friend saw these awesome little books made out of a deck of cards online - 52 Reasons I Love You... on each card is a sentiment of what I love about my husband - some of them are quite funny - some of them are very personal, each of them is made with love. The box I decorated up and distressed.
I also made a little canvas with some burlap and canvas scraps. I used my Dymo machine and some stamps.
And finally, the cupcakes. Because what would Valentines Day be without something sweet? Butter Pecan with cream cheese icing. For the larger cupcakes I used a knife to drag the red icing into a heart.
I can't believe it snowed on October 12th, good grief! And if that wasn't bad enough ... my kids were EXCITED about it, they wanted it to stay! Are you kidding me?!? I would like to move to a place where the temperature is a consistent 24 degrees. So I did an art journal page about my experience that day ... I called it:
Snow is a 4 letter word
My second journal page started out as a sunrise or sunset, not sure, but then I added in some flowers and ... well lollipops - why not, Halloween is right around the corner, and what better goes with sunshine than lollipops hahaha!
Sunshine and Lollipops
