Valentine's Day ideas

Valentine's Day is only a few weeks away so I thought I'd give you some crafty ideas to get you started, because I bet it's going to sneak up on you!

Free Download
I found this cool print&cut free download from the Got Crafts site:
http://gotcrafts.typepad.com/freebies/2010/02/free-valentines-printable-cards.html

All you do is download, print it, cut it out, adhere the two sides together, and you've got a cute lollipop holder. Embellish as you like.

Valentine's layouts
Scrapbook with your Valentine's -themed papers and embellishments. Your layout doesn't need to be about Valentine's Day itself. Do a layout about the people you love or even about the things you love!


Technique-tip: hand-cut hearts from felt!

Journaling tip: list the things you love about someone!

Design tip: Valentine's is not just for girls. Choose red&black for a layouts about boys!

Tip: cut elements from your pages to make a collage.

Valentine's papers also work great for really girly layouts!

And finally, use those leftovers to make some great handmade cards! I'd love to see your ideas and creations!
