Oh, My Sweet Valentine....


Valentine's day is only two days away and ...check out this sweet old fashioned Valentine I made, with much inpiration from Sweet Bella, of course. I layered some patterned paper under an print out of a vintage page from a book. Then I stamped all over it and wiped some away...gives it that worn and faded appearance of a vintage Valentine...and what would a Valentine (or any art project for that matter) be without embellishments? I have to say, embellishments are my FAVORITE part! I usually go crazy with embellishments, but I tried to keep this one simple and sweet...a buddle of paper posies tied with a polka dotted (my fave) ribbon...a little heart in an envelope charm dangles daintily. Not sure who will get this special Valentine...I've made so many lately, I think I'm going to keep this one for myself.... ;-D!!!!!!!!
Here's a quote that really speaks about LOVE:
Love is not blind ~ it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less.
