With only several days away I thought I better hurry and post a Valentine project for you all! This one is especially special to me since it features my mother and father (my fathers only one true love!).
I started with a simple $1.00 frame, 1 sheet of Valentine scrapbook paper and other miscellaneous items I’ve purchased at Michaels Craft Stores at one time or another. This project is actually featured on Michaels website also.
Materials: 1 button card Loops & Thread 1 3/4″ Wood Frame Heart Shape Off white Satin Ribbon, Red Organza Ribbon, Narrow Red Velvet Ribbon Scrapbook paper, Paper Adhesivel Hot glue, glue, Brown Ink Pad, Red Rhinestone, Stencil Brush, cissors, pencilLay frame on paper, trace and cut out. Adhere to frame with paper adhesive. Run edges with a brown ink pad to give it an aged look. To further age the frame, apply ink to paper with stencil brush in a circular motion. Glue velvet riboon around frame. Trim end of ribbon. Tie bows with wide ribbons. glue bows to center top of frame. Glue button to center of bow. Glue rhinestones to button and on paper.
So get out there and start crafting and creating your one of a kind frames!

We are a team of craft-obsessed, button loving people! You probably use buttons almost every day without giving it much thought – they keep our shirts closed and our pants up (hopefully!) - but buttons can be so much more! We created this blog to share all the fun, creative ways we’ve found to use buttons. Our product development team is always coming up with great new button shapes and colors, in addition to new products, so we will always have something new to share with you!
