A Grandparent's Valentine

100_7046

How {cute} is this?

I almost didn't share this with you because these will be given to grandma's and grandpa's in our family and I know that some of them read my blog. I decided to share anyway.

I had fun making this card.

But, let me just say this...

I am NO creative genius when it comes to making these types of cards. I am referring to the detailed outside of the card that many people have a talent for creating.

In fact, I enjoy it but, I don't enjoy it much. Why? Because a lot of work goes into them and A LOT of Patience. I have no patience (what? Joni has no patience?). I had to make 3 of these and that was plenty. After 3, I think the fun factor starts to bottom out for me. I do give credit to those who do make homemade cards and other stamping, punching, and scrapbooking projects. Good Job!

I am sure that sometime in the future I will create another card, but for now, I will stick to a few other ideas I have planned.

I just sort of went with the flow to create the front of this card. I didn't follow any type of example. However, the outside of this card is not what I wanted to share with you. The fun part is on the inside.

Check this out!

I created the board that the kids held and I took pictures of them with. We, of course, chose to stand outside during that time of "The Big Snow". Then I printed the photos and arranged them inside of the card for a {sweet} message.

We will be sending these off soon so that family will receive them for Valentine's Day.
