Lovely Valentine

Love is in the Air, Can you smell it? I can!! I didn’t always like Valentine’s day  but since having my kids, I like to make it special for them. I will do my best to post as many of my valentine projects this week. I have lots to show you, if I can only find the time.  I am going to start with this card I made for my Mother in law in California. She’s actually Tom’s grandma but she has taken on the role of a mil ever so graciously since day one.  Hopefully she will enjoy this card

In a regular card we struggle with space to write our own sentiment, which is why I made this one custom. Giving each of us ample space to write our own love note.     IMG_5626

Can you see the notes hanging on the inside? I bound them with ribbon. (flip book style)

Here are the Ingredients used to make this card:

Stamps: SU Polka dots & Paisley. Hero Arts Coffee pot & cups
