The first picture shows a number of different projects. I put together this Valentine section in my home and another on the fireplace mantel.
Let's start at the top of the photo.
First there is a banner that says "LOVE". This was the banner I had made for our 25th Renewal of vows ceremony.
Below that is a quilted square I had made with a Valentine's Day theme. It is hung on a wooden stand with wooden hearts.
Next we get to the Treat tubes. There are a new product from CTMH. I had posted a short post showing just a couple of Treat tubes earlier. Here I have a few more all decorated differently. They were filled with a few different candies. There are so many things that you could fill these tubes with. Think about decorating them for Easter or Christmas also.
I also made up a Valentine mailbox to hold all those Valentine's you get! I cut everything with my Cricut and the Artiste cartridge and my Gypsy. The mailbox was cut at 3.25"found on page 51. I random stamped all over it with a few different heart stamps from a stamp set called Whoos Your Valentine. I cut out the sentiment on the front of the mailbox door with the Artiste cart. pg72 at 1.5". The back was decorated with some layered hearts cut at 2" from pg 51. I used the colors Blush and Hollyhock.
Here are a few close up pictures of the large mailbox. I had sprayed with some Pearl Paint mixed with Rubbing alcohol all over the completed mailbox for a little shimmer.
This is the mantel area of my home where you can see some more Valentine projects. I decided to try making some tiny mailboxes. I cut them at 1.5". They turned out so cute!! A little bit of a challenge gluing the parts together but worth it in the end. Added to this area is the wooden birdhouse I had posted earlier as well.
Lastly the Heart Banner was made with chipboard and B&T papers. I strung them together with a few beads in between.
I will have some cards for you next time.
Thanks for stopping by.
