Pinterest Monday #1: Cute Valentine Inspirations

Pinterest anyone? I love pinterest. I think I am addicted to it. Wait....I know I am addicted to Pinterest...LOL! Pinterest is my dream land. If I am not careful, I can get lost hours at a time and that would not be too productive, Right?

I have decided that I would start a weekly post on what I find on Pinterest and post my favorites. Since Mondays seem to be the day that most are dragging,  I thought it would be nice to have a Monday to look forward to and be excited about. I know that when I am on Pinterest, I am like that guy you see who gawks at the muscle cars. Yep, that is me drowling all over my computer...lol!


Lets welcome Mondays to jump start our week with Pinterest Mondays


You can follow me on Pinterest.

Valentine Heart Project

This is actually a school assignment that lead to a Valentine theme.  My 6 year old daughter is in first grade and her class is celebrating 100 days of being in school this week. The assignment is to find or create 100 objects and place them on a board. As part of the learning experience the assignment also required her to count the 100 objects. You will see the photos of the Valentine Heart Project below.

Final project! 100 hearts on the board. 
Can you see the number 100?

There is a large number of hearts left over from this project! So I think we are going to make a few more things. Why not, Valentine's Day is just right around the corner! 

This is also a project to do anytime of the year with your little one. It is cheap and easy to do. Not to mention it is great quality time.

By the way, just in case you are wondering. I used some cute digital papers to matte my photos and logo. What do you think? They are from Design House Digital and the pack is called Letter of Love by Sara Schmutz
