IS THIS OVERDONE ENOUGH?

Remember my old adage "It's not done until it's overdone"?

Well I think I've certainly lived up to it this time. My sweet Aubrey (second grade) called me last night and asked me to make her a valentines box. Well the wheels started turning and this is what I came up with...






A super blingy Valentine purse box!
















The flap lifts up so she can
put her Valentines in it.














I put her name on the front and
"LOVE" on the sides.














Then a cupid on the back
and lots of sparkly hearts.














I think she likes it. She wouldn't put it down the whole time I was visiting.

Aubrey and the Valentine box are both adorable! I used to love making those when I was in school; I hadn't thought of them in years. Have a Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope I can be as good a Grandma as you to MY Aubrey. She is just 7 months old right now, but I'll bet she'll be asking me for crafty stuff soon enough ( :

You are the best gramma ever! She has a huge smile on her face, so you know she was in love with it. So sweet of her to think to call you. I just love that.
