valentine's cards {makin' bawentimes carwds!}

I procrastinated until the last minute on making Valentine's Day cards to send to M & E's cousins.  

I had big dreams of way cute.  

But when you wait until the last minute,  you just cut a heart stamp out of a potato in your pantry, get some craft paint out of your stash, cut up some scrap-booking paper, strip the kid to his skivvies' and see what happens.


We had so much fun!


Miles l-o-v-e-d painting the heart (we figured out this was the best way to apply the paint)... 


...and then he'd slam the stamp down on his cards (just as a little boy should).  Sometimes he'd say "gotcha!" as he stamped.  


Once the paint was dry,  Ella and I ate sewed on some ribbon and fabric embellishments...


Miles colored the inside of each of the cards and...voila!
