Picture me Valentine

February 13, 2011 · Delia 21 Comments

On Thursday I realized it was four days until Valentine’s Day and we hadn’t made our grandparent Valentines yet. Eek! So I used our heart wall and made the kids pose in front of it. I didn’t even bother to comb their hair or dress them up. Ha ha. Oh well.

I added some captions and then printed them up at Sam’s club. The boys wrote little love notes on some paper hearts and we sent them off. Simple, easy, yet I think their grandparents will enjoy them plenty.

Sorry for the blogging lull and now the overload of posts. It’s how my life is going right now. Plus I have been behind with Valentines stuff and am now just catching up.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

holiday, tutorial, Valentine's Day

    These are adorable and so easy to put together. I'm loving the personalized photo Valentine trend. I'm actually kinda wishing we lived somewhere right now where kids celebrated V-Day. I'll have to remember this for next year.

    Oh I just LOVE them! The hearts could be done digitally too, which is what I will end up doing since we don't have a good wall right now. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Oh my gosh how cute! You should totally share the heart background With all of us where we can put our own kids pictures on it. That would be awesome! Did you see the one eighteen25 shared? It was so cool. If you did something like that I'd love you forever! 😉 I totally love the heart background! Too cute!

    […] Kiddo-I wish I had seen these cute Valentine cards a few weeks ago so that I could have done something similar with an Ollie photo for our families. I love the idea of having a personal Valentine to send out to your loved ones and a homemade card is always the most appreciated. […]
