A treat fit for a crafter!!



Yesterday I received and AMAZING, AMAZING gift from Natalie!! I do realize most people would prefer receiving this full of edible treats... but to me these ARE treats!! Every little cups is filled with a different craft item!! IMAGINE all the stuff I could do with these! well... that's IF i would consider using them. It's just too nice to use up. (Natalie: note that I used the word IMAGINE here just. for. you. !) hahaha



I love the fact that all the items are in little Valentines mini paper cups! That is absolutely so cute!! Thank you SO much Natalie!!

(I apologize for the excessive use of exclamation marks! but it's too amazing!)

Easel card



Easel card, where have you been all my life???

I was afraid of trying this easel card for some reason. and now that i tried it, I am in LOVE! it is SO easy to make and it turned out BEAUTIFUL!!!



Valentine milk cartons!

Here is the cute little milk carton holder that i made with a tutorial from Inking Idaho.




I apologize for the dark pictures! they make the project look not so nice! It's really cuter in person. I should try and take pics at reasonable hours when it is still light! Then my pics would turn out better.

a little Valentine treat

Here is the cutest little idea in the world! Natalie found the idea online, I forget where. It was a Halloween one so I just modified it for Valentine's Day!!

Here is the little calendar case, closed.



This is what it looks like when you start opening it up...



and here is the cute licorice inside!



For Halloween, this can be made with black licorice! I LOVE this project!!

Valentine's is on it's way!

Natalie and I have our Valentine workshop coming soon... we are aiming for February 6th early in the day. For family reasons, we will only be having one workshop this time around.

Here are some sneak peaks of what will be happening at the workshops & for the Valentine season!



These are part of the many Valentine crafts we worked on for our workshops!





It was so awesome to plan them all... so it will be awesome to share it with everyone as well!
