VALENTINE




This is the last Valentine post from me, I promise. I started out with a card in mind, but ended up with a layout. Without a photo, as you can see. But, that is what happens when the printer is out of ink, and the project is due.
I cut apart the tiny valentines on the collage sheet  and along with the stickers from the sticker sheet, I randomly stacked them  where I felt like it suited my layout.

This is one of the pieces, trimmed in close and then I carefully cut a slit just beside the right hand page and the book border. I slipped a ribbon and two faux pages. Gave it all a little lift with some dots to give it a 3 dimensional look.

The letters are from an older Fancy Pants 
sticker alphabet sheet. 
I always gently adhere just the lower bit of  a long phrase or title to a ruler, so I can manipulate  them around till I find where I want to place them.
-Always buy your Alphabets, Stickers and Embellishments with your paper for the best matches. 

Who will you be celebrating Valentines with this year?
 ....I am still open for dates...

Gorgeous layout! I love how you've altered the little book - so clever! And the ruler trick is definitely one I will be using again and again - why didn't I ever think of it?
