Yeah February

I am so glad January is over (see reasons why here).

February means lots of pink and red and valentines and expressions of love. Hubs and I used to go out for Valentine's but have stayed in the last couple of years because getting a sitter is kinda hard for Valentine's evening. It is such a fun time because I'm a crafty girl. I remember trying so hard to make the perfect valentine for my parents each year at school. I know lots of people send e-cards these days, but for Valentine's day, there's nothing like getting a special handmade little piece of love. I think my mom still has the ones we gave her growing up in a drawer somewhere. As mentioned before, I designed my little guys cards this year, but came across some other wonderful ideas online that I thought I'd share. There are so many fun ideas out there - not enough time in the day to make them all!

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
