Homemade

One day while looking at blogs of lives of people I don't know nor will ever meet, I came across a really cute DIY project to make snow-globe postcards here. And I knew they would be so cute as homemade valentines. So Truman and I got out the craft supplies (which, by the way, are still cluttering up my table. Sad.)  and went to work. I was not so ambitious/crazy to try and make them for Trum's class, instead we made some for Jack and some other beloveds in our life.
I used old Victorian Images that I found on Google and for the "snow" I used Cupid Confetti.

Here are Jack's Valentines from Trum and I. The one on the Left had to be edited since the man's hand placement was a little sassy. I am not sure what to think of those Victorians, since finding this one. Still what do you think of me since I reused it? Any who, Trum added pipe-cleaners to his for some extra pizazz!

I just loved this lady!

This one is probably my favorite, it was REALLY hard to send it.
Go ahead and make some at your home. They are super fun! Then be sure to mail one to me!

So bea-u-ti-ful! Seriously, the thing that kills me here is the lack of art supplies. I went into an "art store" which was recommended to me, and I don't even know what to say about it. It was tiny, expensive and had the LAMEST selection of art supplies EVER. I'm going to cry when I walk into Micheals again.
