Valentine's Card Party

Last Friday, I hosted a Valentine's Card Party with a few friends! I have started having a yearly one for Christmas cards, but a friend asked about doing one for Valentine's and I thought it was a sweet idea! 

I recently featured some of my Valentine's cards and was excited to see what the girls would create! At Christmas, I work to make kits for each of the cards, but I figured we couldn't go wrong with some cute paper and some heart punches. 

Homemade Valentine's Cards

Every year at Christmas I get out my embossing gun, stamps, cardstock, and the other hoards of card making supplies I have for my annual card making. For the past two years, I've even hosted a Card Making Party.  I thought - why not expand card making beyond just my Christmas cards this year? Nothing says LOVE more than homemade! I hope these card ideas give you some inspiration!

Valentine's Day Garland

Are you looking for a simple but adorable way to spruce up your house for Valentine's Day? I am in love with this craft - my house will probably have paper garlands draped everywhere!

My sister over at The Life of Jennifer Dawn has a special knack for garlands! Make sure to check out some of hers. 

DIY Home Gym Makeover {Part 2}

Last week, I shared the before pictures of our garage - half of which we have been working hard to convert into a home gym! Reveal time has finally come!

DIY Home Gym Makeover {Part 1}

Whoa... yes. I am ashamed to admit -- this is our garage. It is the home of a lot of accumulated junk. Believe it or not... there is also some workout equipment scattered in there. And yes, I do actually walk on the treadmill in all that mess. 
I think our garage is well past due for a MAKEOVER! For a while now I have been wanting to convert half of our garage into a home gym. The time has come!
