I know, I know Valentines Day is over...
but I put lots of work into this and intend to leave it out all month!!
And the fact is I finished it "after" Valentines Day!!!
And the fact is I finished it "after" Valentines Day!!!
Plus, don't you think "love" should be "never ending"..lol!!
A few weeks ago I orderd a line of "Fancy Pants" called "Be Loved".
I loved the colors included, teal, gray, pink...favorites!!
I wanted a bit of Valentine decor without spending an arm and a leg
and was "Pinterest" inspired with all the paper flowers I keep seeing.
I cut all my flowers on my trusty neglected Cricut Expression....
it took a while, as I ordered the 6 x 6 pad, so had to keep reloading my papers.
But it was well worth the effort I think. Everything you see is from the "Be Loved"
collection, including the flower centers and those cute little chipboard "love birds".
The red ribbon is SU Real Red
and the tin I covered has been in my stash for over 7 years!!
This is a short post as I have way too much (as usual) to do today...see ya later!!
