handmade valentine

Hello there! It’s that time of year when we get ready to make valentines with our kids to send into school. Here is a sugar free valentine made quickly and inexpensively with supplies from Papermart:

Watch this quick video to see how it’s done, let’s get inky!

If you want to see the tutorial for the DIY spray inks and daubers you can find it here. I used 6″ paper doilies, twisted paper cord, tags and baker’s twine from Papermart on this project. These are supplies I find myself using over and over for projects. They are great to have around and so inexpensive you won’t worry about the kids using them for their crafts too! I hope you enjoyed this sugar-free Valentine! Til next time happy crafting!

I am ga-ga for valentines, especially ones with a vintage flair and if they can hold candy all the better! Today I put together an easy tutorial {with freebies} so you can make a cute hanging heart pocket too:

You can read, print or save my PDF tutorial here. The papers and circle text stamp are freebies and the typewriter stamp is from the Steampunk Style digital stamp set:

There is so much you can do with the Steampunk kit, I love it for masculine birthday cards too! Here is the freebie kit, BTW the PDF tutorial is in the kit too:) Click the pic to download it 🙂

Now let’s see what the rest of the Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff DT has created for us today, also we must bid a fond farewell to Laurel Seabrook, we have enjoyed her stunning creations every week for the past 6 months and we will miss you!
