...NuTs about YoU...

I whipped this up in under 30 minutes for my neighbor's daughter's teacher...

I used Nicole Heady's pattern for a criss cross box.  The squirrel is from the PTI punny valentine set and the NuTs abut YoU stamp is an old aMuse stamp...

A few nesties, some patterned paper, a punch or two and twine...PooF...done! :)

...My PuNnY VaLenTinE...

Here are the mailboxes I made for the boys this year.

Each day in February, I'm going to put a PuNnY note in them and a matching prize.

Here's a closer view of Connor's...

I kept them SuPeR simple!  They are for boys...so it seemed silly to go all crazy...I could have left them blank and no one would have cared except me...

Here's Sanford's.  I coordinated them....uUmmmm...ok...let's be honest here...I was lazy...I just flipped the patterned paper over and used the secondary design...that's what it's there for right?!?!? Right?!?!?!

Here they are on the mantle along with all the Valentine decorations that happened this year...I love that felt heart banner...it was a steal for $3 at Target! :)

Here's the  entry table.  I went  ahead and printed out an 8x10 version of the cute Eighteen25 subway art...I just LOVE it!!

Oh...and here's a picture of the first days pun and prize...husband version... (the boy got the same thing...but without the juice and the newspaper) :)

candy and the pun...You're SWeeT...starting simple 

Thanks for looking!

...MoJo MoNDaY 278...

I love the Mojo Monday sketches...but I just haven't been feeling all that crafty lately.

I decided that making one thing a week was a good goal and with the Mojo Monday Challenge...most of the work is already done for me :)  No more excuses!

Here's this week's sketch

click HERE to see all the amazing creations based on the sketch

Here's my version...

...with a bow...

...and without...I'm not sure which I like better...but I'm leaning heavily toward without.

I think the bow takes away from the cute little pennants hanging down...

The lettering in the background is AmAZinGLy CuTE subway art from

Eighteen25 

EvErYThinG they do is AdoRaBLe!!!  They have a bunch of different holiday SuBWaY art printables you can download for free...They are generous as well as CraZY talented :)

Here's a close up of my LoVE BuG :)

She has copic cheeks with a white gel pen spot and her shell is coated in diamond glaze with a few Stickles spots

I LoVE her.

Thanks for Looking :)
