Box Crafts...

I also made these two pretties for my tree, because I love sweet
boxes, dioramas, shadow boxes and such.
The kitten face I printed from FPTFY. I used my glitter pen
to add sparkle to its face. It's hard to see but it's on there.
She's got a polymer clay heart attached to a piece of velvet
ribbon as a collar.  I also attached a tiny ribbon rose to her ear
bow.
 

 
 
In this box I used an image from Wings of Whimsy.  I used
red Stickles glitter glue on her shoes, hat, wrists and ankles.
I added a tiny red pom pom to the top of her hat and a little
clear glitter on her heart collar and the hearts on her outfit. 
The red balls around the inside edges are cut from Christmas
picks (Hobby Lobby).
I made a polymer clay heart to dangle from the bottom and
added beads to the top hanger.
 
You can see here how I added folded cardstock behind the
paper doll for dimension. I did the same with the kitten face. 
 
 
And this sweetie is a tiny chenille (pipe cleaner) teddy bear 
my Mom made for me last year. I added a polymer clay heart 
to her hand and a piece of twine for hanging. I love the google eyes.

Valentine Ornaments...

Today I made a few more ornaments for my topiary.  I thought I would share
these also.

Valentine's Day Craft...

I have a topiary tree that I decorate for every holiday. Yesterday, I made these sweet
Valentine wands to add to my other decorations. 




 
 
 
 
 

I found the red and white striped straws at Target the other day in the dollar section.
I also bought the mini red and pink balls in the Target Christmas clearance.
The large hot pink balls are from the Hobby Lobby after Christmas clearance.
