Inexpensive Valentine Art.....


I made this project last year and despite all the excess glue....it still remains one of my favorite projects....

I took an old frame from Goodwill and painted it with white paint.  I then rubbed glaze onto it....you can also use stain.

I grabbed some foam board....you can buy it at The Dollar Tree for $1.00.  I had some scrap lying around...

Take some red cardstock and cut a circle and then cut a spiral...


Start in the center and begin to glue your rosette.....use SMALL dabs of glue....I used GLOBS!



I ripped some strips from the want ads in the newspaper and then glued my rosettes in the shape of a heart....




I had leftover scrapbook stickers and added the word LOVE...



It was a quick and easy project that can be customized however you like!




If you like this project....would you PIN IT??
