Welcome to the first ever Design D.I.V.A'S Blog Hop. If you are arriving here from
Sharon Harnist blog you are in the right spot. The theme of the Blog Hop was to use something you haven't used in at least 6 months. I decided to go with a Target Valentines mail box I got a couple of years ago and had not decorated. Here is the mailbox I created:
The little mail box is pink and both ends are completely removable. I cut the dp for my mailbox using my cricut and a free SVG file from
here. I did modify the MTC file as I wanted to use this one direction paper and wanted both ends to be going the same direction. The LOVE stamp was cut with the cricut and mounted on the flag.
I used my ATG gun to mount the dp and covered the edges with pearl covered lace ribbon. The hearts were cut with my cricut.
The pearl and rose designs on the sides were purchased at Archivers.
I think it really turned out pretty and it is time to head over to one of my bestest friends, the Super Mega Talented,
Theresa Momber. I know Theresa will have something to knock your socks off.
Thanks so much for stopping by and be prepared to spend your morning enjoying the creations of this creative group of ladies.
Hugs to you all,
Cathy
I just thought it would be fun to make something really pretty for Valentines Day.
