Unless you mean in the sneaky way. Otherwise, only in my dreams. But for some reason, Valentine's Day brings out the would-be crafter in me. Last year I made some icky, ugly Valentine's Day cards and sent them to friends and family. Nobody laughed at me, which I greatly appreciated.
This year, I got inspired by Martha Stewart Living, which I'd picked up for some layout inspiration when I was doing my article. I found two crafts that looked perfect for me: easy peasy & cute.
Reminder to self: I'm not crafty. I forgot for a few minutes.
Anyway, here are the pictures of Martha's professional versions:
Exhibit A : Heart-Covered Wax Paper
Exhibit B : Felt Fortune Cookies
And here are how mine turned out. The great thing about a blog is that I can't hear you all laughing at me:
This is BEFORE Joseph crinkled it up and made it even more "textured."
This is the most generous shot I could get of the fortune cookies. The wire stuck out and wouldn't stay below the ribbon. But it would be very cool if I get the right kind of glue and whatnot. And even funner, Joseph and I made each other little valentines to go inside, made from little cut up hearts:
Those are the cutest thing. I'm with you on the no crafty area! I have never scrapped booked, and I never will. At least you attept things. That's much more than I would ever do and I think you did a rather god job.
ReplyDeleteGood work, Martha would be so proud! I really like the tissue paper with the hearts, I thought those were darling!
