i needed favors for a little valentine's coffee.
so - i bought 3 bags of wooden hearts from hobby lobby.
used misc. scrapbook paper & ribbon bits & embellishments found hither & yon
cut out 2 3/4” hearts with my cricut
they were a little off but that’s ok
i.had.a.plan.
but – i totally forgot to take pictures of the process :(
so you’ll just have to imagine it all in your minds.
modge podged the paper hearts onto the wooden hearts
using my pampered chef little pie roller as a brayer.
oh, i forgot this part. first, i painted all the wooden hearts a few
different colors: silver, gold, cream, white & red. then i waited for them
to dry. then, i modge podged the paper hearts onto the wooden hearts
using my pampered chef little pie roller (you know – the one that has a 4” roller on
one end & a 2” roller on the other end) as a brayer.
then – the fun began! i hot glued & modge podged & stickled (you do know all about stickle, right?) to my heart’s content.
i did take photos of the final results after i hung them on a little wire tree:
i think they were a hit!
only a few were left & they're for me!
they were a lot of fun to make & even more fun to give!
i'm linking up with kimba for diy day!

Oh that is so sweet. I love all your designs...what a fun way to use an ornament tree. Gotta get cracking to make some St. Patty's day ones now.
Randee,
I did a VERY similar project using those little wooden hearts from Hobby Lobby and scrapbook paper to make favors for our Valentine's Tea. I stamped inspirational verses and scripture on them so they resembled conversation hearts and embellished with flowers and charms.
