Every now and then however, something will hit me and I get the urge to drag out the glue gun. One night last week was one of those times. I decided to make this for Valentine's Day...
It was easy, fun, and I think it turned out cute!
I bought one sheet of the red checkered scrapbook paper, cut it the size of my glass, sprayed it with adhesive then stuck it right on top of the glass. I had previously bought a package of the hearts at Michael's so I just picked out the 3 I wanted to use, sprayed them with adhesive also then placed them where I wanted them. There were about 12 hearts in the package. Red, red glitter, pink, and pink glitter. The only time consuming part was making the bow. I used 4 different ribbons, tied them all together, then hot glued the bow to the frame. That's it!
I'd like to make another one this week using pinks. One single pink heart in a 5x7 frame. This was an inexpensive craft to make and would be fun for kids and adults. If you decide to make one, let me know. I'd love to see your creations!

This looks like a lot of fun to make and I'd like to give it a shot!! I have never used spray adhesive and I am hearing of it more and more. I have to pick some up. It sounds heavenly!!
Great job. LOVE the bow! :-)

Very cute! Such a good idea, and easy to do. Your decorating talent is showing here too. I don't really think about decorating for Valentines Day. Christmas is about the only time I do, and maybe a little for Fall.
So nice Linda! What a great idea! Don't you love a craft thats super easy but looks like you spent hours making it! Hugs, Loretta
That IS cute!
You and I could complement each other nicely, as I AM generally crafty, but I'm not so good with the home decorating...
Linda, I think we were separated at birth; neither of us are particularly crafty (but we like it) and we would like someone to do it with, move near me.
Super cute. I think even I could do that as I am totally craft impaired!
Ok, you say you aren't crafty, but that is pretty good!
VERY CUTE! You are more clever that you give yourself credit for!
You come up with the best ideas, using frames!
That is seriously SO cute!! You did a great job!! I also like that you can do it in different colors. Lots of possibilities!
Very, very cute!
Hi Linda,
That turned out so CUTE!! LOVE it! Hope you are enjoying your day.♥
Cute craft idea! Sort of makes me want to do some Valentines decorating.
Hi Linda,
If I lived by you...we would so craft together!!!
Your Valentine decoration is perfect and I like the idea of a 5X7 one.
You go girl!!
Warmly,
Deb :)
