Valentine Preparation
We finished Ben's valentine box, at the ninth hour... Nicholas NEEDED to make one too. So fun, so cute. They are alligators.
Ben also finished assembling all of his class valentines with a little help from mom. No candy this year to coincide with Ben's year without candy...
Oh, a side note- avoid See's Candies the day before Valentines. Check out this line.. Notice it's all men. Lol.

Card Club - February
Triple stamping using the SU Raining Flowers (and an alternate shown using Secret Garden) stamp set.
Here are the measurements and instructions to recreate the triple stamping card.
1. Cut three pieces of white or vanilla card stock.
2-1/2 x 3-1/2
3-1/4 x 4-3/8
4 x 5-1/4
2. Cut three pieces of contrasting card stock
2-3/4 x 3-3/4
3-1/2 x 4-5/8
4-1/4 x 11 or 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 folded for card base
3. Layer the White or vanilla card stock pieces and stamp.
4. Alternate layers of the stamped card stock and contrasting card stock, adhere.
Faux chalkboard effect using Oh, Hello stamp set and whisper white craft ink. Just stamp the craft ink directly onto the black card stock, then with a sponge lightly buff and smear to get the chalky effect. Easy.
Sweet and simple doily card using Oh, Hello stamp set, paper doilies and whisper white craft ink.
And lastly, here is a shot of the sweet Valentines I made for the card club girls. Looks like candy. Craft candy.
Congratulations Megan!
I just watched the live feed of Megan (Chris's sister) receive her bachelors in Business Management from WGU! Way to go Megan! We are so proud of you. Such a huge accomplishment. Chris was able to read her name onstage and Leslie cheered from the audience. I could see and hear it all.
Here are some photos from last nights mixer and I just snapped some phone stills of the Atlanta feed broadcast. Gotta love technology.
