Happy Valentines Day...

Happy Valentines Day... I joined Treasured Heirlooms Amour Valentine Swap...my first swap ever! We were assigned a partner and were to see what they loved and create a heart shaped box Valentine for them...my swap partner was Debbi from Debbi thinks Deep who said she loved her blue bedroom, so I created a blue Valentine Box, vintage image and some vintage bling...

I found an old ceramic blue heart, some of my cupcakes and a organza rose pin...

I made her some tags, a vintage dollie and some paper roses...

some vintage trim...

tied with a sweet bow...

all ready to go, I added some candy and some Valentines stamps...so much fun!!!!

    The boxes were so pretty!! I think you both came out ahead! How darling and what aneat event. I don't think I could ever be that creative!!

    The pink candy corn you sent me was a big hit on my Valentine's Day post. Since it was just pictures, I didn't mention your name. If you have more I can mention it in a post and maybe you can sell more. Let me know!

    Happy Valentine's Day Stefanie...
    The boxes are so beautiful. You both received wonderful gifts of love. How cute one pink, and one blue. I love the little tags that you made and the cupcakes were just precious. You do such beautiful work.

    I am so thrilled for Gwen that she won the necklace. It is truly beautiful. I would so love it if you shared the instructions. I have bought the memory glass and I have the tape in silver and gold that go around the glass, I am just not sure how it all goes together. Could you email a few details? Please?

    Thank you for sharing this glorious day with me. I love it when you do. Country hugs and so much love...Sherry
