Whoooos Your Valentine/You've Got Mail!

So---

I had some time to play with my Cricut this afternoon

and knowing I will be needing

20-30 little somethings

for little someones

(preschool)

I began thumbing through the

Close to My Heart

Artiste Cricut Cartridge booklet

and decided that

little mailboxes

would by just the thing

to hold the Hershey Kisses I got!

 

Here's what I came up with...

Just big enough to hold three Hershey Kisses!

(maybe four-not sure-ate it instead!)

 

If you want to create this cute little treat

cut your mailbox (and all parts)

at 1 1/2".

To save you from saying

lots of dirty words wordy durds...

The easiest way to add that

red border strip

on to those insy tinsy scallops

is to run tape on the scalloped portion

and then attach the red strip,

rolling off any excess tape as you go.

I do not do well with wet glue.

Low temp glue was bumpy and dried too fast.

Regular glue took too long to dry...

and that Liquid Glass stuff was everywhere and wet and sticky and...

This is by far the worst part of the entire project (for me)!

MANY hit the trash can

before I hit on the right combination for me!

 

The stamp set I used

was from
WHOOOS Your Valentine

another great CTMH product.

Used Ruby cardstock and ink.

I've earned a rum drink after that!

Only another 29 to go!

 

Until next time,

happy stamping and scrapping!
