Mailed out bunches of hand-crafted-with-love Valentines to family and friends earlier this week.

A vellum band with the phrase,

All You Need Is…

surrounds the Valentine.

Slide the band off, and open the Valentine…

…and you get,

All You Need Is…LOVE

Hope the Valentines arrived in time.

Mostly, I hope folks were pleasantly surprised (delighted).

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Here is a last-minute Valentine decoration — very quick and easy. Grab all your paper scraps, a stapler and some scissors (or your cutting device of preference) and you’ll have this done in no time…maybe even by Valentine’s Day!

This clever idea comes from A Little Great.

Super simple instructions:

Using card stock, cut 8.5″ x 1″ strips.

Fold each strip in half.

Instead of stapling the chain together in a traditional circle, make a heart shape instead.

Enjoy!
