In the mood.....booo-oy!


Ok, not really. But we're setting the stage for a Valentine's party Becca and I will be hosting next week! I've done a very similar craft last year for Easter if you have followed my other blog for that long. Easy peasy...

Here's what we used:
Clear contact paper
craft paint
embroidery floss
ribbons
buttons
stickers
paper scraps


Here's what i did:
I took off the backing from the contact paper, and taped the contact paper to the table using blue tape. Sticky side up. Let'er loose! Becca painted with a passion, used scraps to just decorate and have fun. When she was finished decorating, and she was out of the room (her help was more of a hinder at this point!) I cut another piece of contact paper the same size, took of the backing and then laid it down on top of the first. Sticky side down.


I then took the creative liberty (or maybe it was the adult scissoring skill) to cut hearts out, punch holes and tie ribbon/thread and hang in our dinningroom! Great sun catchers (where there is sun), But it turns out the blinding light from the snow does the job also! lol.
