Valentine's Day Cards...Be Mine

I am not much on Valentine's Day...to me it is just another day.  I don't decorate for it, but my son's birthday is a few days before, so there is always a party in the vicinity of Valentine's Day.

I wanted to make a few special cards for Valentine's so of course I thought of wool first!

As you can see the first step was to get my Diet Coke opened.

I cut out a simple heart shape from a piece of felted wool that happened to be pink striped.  Appropriate, don't you think?

I sewed each heart onto a colored print card stock with transparent thread.

Then i used some high powered spray adhesive to adhere the card stock onto the actual card I was using.  See the 2 liter bottle of Diet Coke in the background?  We were snowed in and I wanted to make sure that I had plenty in case I couldn't get out for weeks. 

And then I used these alphabet stamps (which I scored at Salvation Army for $1 for the set) to stamp Be Mine inside.

I just used black ink, but red or pink would look great too!

I love the font!

I love the way it turned out here on the inside of the cards.

And here is the final result...

I think they turned out really nice!
