Hi friends!
Happy Wednesday....
I've got a few Valentine projects to share with you on this fine day after....
I saw an idea similar to this online somewhere (truth be told it was most likely Pinterest) and of course I had to make my own version of it for my Mountain Dew lovin' man's Valentine treat:) He loved it.
Next....
I made this card for the little Miss. If you have been reading for awhile you know that a few weeks back Mars got her ears pierced. Well...the date for changing her earrings for the first time is only a couple of days away...I know this because I am reminded at least once daily....so a new pair of earrings seemed like the perfect Valentine's Day present. I wanted to "hide" them on the card and see if she noticed....she did....immediately. The 19th cannot get here fast enough!
Evan is like his Mama and not into the mushy mush of it all. He got some new gear for camping/hiking...no card....just a present with a tag....just the way he likes it:) He was all smiles.
I made a couple of other little Valentine's too but didn't photograph them.
I am never this "into" this holiday but this year I don't know what came over me.
It was scary for a few days. I was all about the mushy gushy stuff for a minute...BUT this morning true to form and before I could blog I had to clean up my kitchen.
It seriously looked like Cupid puked up his Pepto in here.
There was so much pink and red I couldn't stand it....
I packed it all up into Rubbermaid containers for another year.
I feel better now.
Anyway....I hope all of you that DO get into this day had a great one.
Thanks for visiting today!

Cupid, huh? ;)
Very fun projects, Melonie. Perfect for your family. The Dew idea is just brilliant. Love the hidden earrings, too. I can still remember how excited I was when I got my ears pierced. Seems like only yesterday.....
