Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

 I had full intentions of posting my Valentine's Day decor a LONG time ago, but it didn't happen, obviously.  Today Tyler is sick with the nasty virus that has been going around, and I'm praying I don't catch it!!! But, since it's so quiet around here today, I thought I'd have time to do lots of computer-y stuff...so here I am!  I actually took these decorations down this morning, but this will be our last Valentine's day in our first home (yay! wait for another post on that update), so I wanted to make sure I put it here to remember!

I made this little silhouettes with cheap frames from Walmart and decals I bought on sale at Crafts2000.  Then I printed 1 Corinthians 13 on some paper and that's what I used as the background.  For an added touch, I glued that little ribbon to the girl's hair :) They turned out super cute I think! 
  



 Obviously, I was very crafty this Valentine's Day :p...I used my new sewing machine I got from my mom for Christmas to make this heart bunting.  If you look closely, you can see the stitch is little hearts as well! Who knew I would love sewing? Not me! :p

 Another thing I made was this scrap wreath.  My mawmaw passed away this past year and she was a major seamstress.  She had ALL KINDS of fabric left and my sisters and I divvied it up into what we each wanted.  There were a lot of little pieces that couldn't really be sewn into anything, but they worked PERFECT for this wreath! I knew it really wasn't my 'style', but when I finished it I really like it!


And finally our 'mantle'...there will probably be no more seasonal decorating here, but I can't wait to decorate our new house and I will DEFINITELY post pics of it! :)



 Hope everyone had a love-filled Valentine's Day!! Oh, and Tyler did really well this year - here is a picture of my beautiful roses! :)
