Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day, isn't this such a lovely holiday? Heart balloons everywhere, stuffed bears, heart shaped chocolate boxes, and flowers!! i adore flowers, my favorite thing to get every holiday it requires the hubs to buy me something. Just a simple bouquet of flowers will make my day.

This year i wanted to make something cute, and girly, for my little nieces and little sister.


 i saw these super cute mail boxes, and i just had to have them. Perfect for V-day. Just a little something to celebrate, and to give for Valentine's day.


Filled them with yummy chocolate and heart shaped confetti i made, with paint swatches and my heart shaped puncher.


i even personalized them with their own sticker monogram.
And a little heart on the front of each mail box.

Happy Valentine's Day peeps

DIY: Paint Swatches for Valentines Day Gifts

Oh what a beautiful Friday it is today! Who is ready for the weekend? i used to always look forward to the weekends, because it all started on Friday's for me. Since i started working from home, it feels like my weekends start on Monday's. Seeing that i work on the weekends from home, it has turned my world upside down. But i love it, i love my job.

So can you believe Valentine's day is just in a couple of weeks? Boy, time is flying this year. Since Valentine's day is just around the corner, today i wanted to show you a little project i worked on over (my weekend) it's super simple, and cute. All i used was, paint swatches, i have tons, a heart shape puncher, which you can get in any craft store, i used my coupon so i got it for 50% off! yay!! And a simple frame, got mine at IKEA.
 



My little Handsome Man loves this puncher
 
 



Ta Da!
 

 
What do you think? It's quick, it's simple, and so cute. I made one for each of my sister's. I love V-day. The decorations and colors are sooo girly, and sooo sweet! 
 
I love using paint swatches, as you can tell, i have used them for various things, hehe.
 
Thanks for stopping by, and have a terrific weekend!

DIY: Swatch Greeting Cards

I love paint swatches! They're so fun to play with.




Ok, I have a million of swatches, and I love to use them in every way that I can.
This time I thought I'd use them to make cards. I made 3 different types of cards this month.



Father's Day Cards


This card is in Spanish for my Dad.

It says " 8 Reasons Why You Are A Great Dad"
And everyone in the family (we have a small family) wrote a little message for dad.






This card I made for the hubs.


Since our baby can't write or paint yet, I traced his little foot and hand as his message to daddy.
Plus my message.







Birthday Card




I left 2 others blank for my two other friends to write their own message to Heidi.

Than she can tie it to close the card.



 What creative ways have you used your paint swatches?
