Fun Heart and Arrow Project

Bonjour Mes Amis!

Hope you all had a great week.

I know what you must be wondering, 

"Why oh why is this girl rushing ahead to Valentine's Day already?!"

Well, if you are one who creates, then you probably like to plan ahead a bit.

I know some of you even plan and create Christmas projects in July!

Well, I am not nearly that organized!

But, since DecoArt was requesting Valentine's themed projects, I just couldn't resist creating this stacked heart and arrow!

 I had so much fun with this project, and couldn't resist adding a bit of my signature glitter!

My color palette was white along with pretty shades of pink.

 Just for fun, I decided to add a white polka dot border to the middle heart.

 I found this adorable white grosgrain ribbon with little gold arrows, which I thought was the perfect embellishment for my hearts!

 I should back up a bit by saying that the hearts started out as unfinished wood pieces.

 Same with the arrows.  I also found a really neat dimensional metal arrow that I added.

 Here's a little tip if you want to paint polka dots.  Just take the eraser end of a pencil and dip it in a bit of your paint to create dots.  Dip each time you make a new dot, and viola!

Fun and cheerful, easy-peasy polka dots!!

 I had the best time creating this project for DecoArt!

I hope it inspires you to make something too!

Thanks so much for stopping by, your visits and comments mean alot to me:)
