Calla Lily Studio Blog: Happy Valentine's Day!

I wanted to show you several of the projects I have been working on since my last post. The cards above are going to our Grandsons for Valentine's Day. I don't have a printer here in Florida so we hand wrote the saying on the inside. The panda bear is from Marianne Designs. I love this cute bear!

This card is just one I wanted to try since it's a new technique for me. My sister, Connie, was here for a visit and she showed me how to make it. Love that you can add your sentiment to the back or to either side. I am not sure how I am going to decorate it but wanted to show you this adorable card. It's call a Double Slider Card. The tutorial is from Mixed up Crafts and so easy to follow-

This card will stand up too since it is made as a tent card. You will love it!

The card below was for a friend who had a birthday recently. She is in her 90's! I thought she would like to see some flowers since it is going to be a long winter! It is fashioned like a card in a box. I added the leaves from Heartfelt Creation's Classic Leaf die. A few bees are buzzing around too.

I put the sentiment on the back of the box.

The last project I am working on is a Concertina Card from Mixed Up Crafts. It is a British blog and I think her name is Sam. I just love her blog. Lot's of great tutorials that are fun to make. You can check her out here-

Here are a couple of pictures of my Concertina Card. I haven't decided how to decorate it yet but wanted you to see it. It does close for mailing too!

The weather was a little chilly to start but now it is just beautiful in the 80's. Hope it stays that way!!

I bought this sign at a Craft Fair! My husband and I love to play golf here and I thought it would be nice to have on our wall! Nice reminder!

We have been to Disney several times since we have been here. So you know it hasn't been all work and no play. Here are a few pictures from our stay. Hope you all have a fabulous Valentine Day!
