Standing Valentine

 Hi Friends,

Here is an easy way to display Valentines.

I had this darling Kitty sending a  letter to his sweetheart.


I traced the card on to a scrap of 1/8'' thick craft store wood.

You could use foam board or card board.

I used a utility knife to cut out the design.





For the stand, I glued together 2 'Jenga' pieces but any small

scrap of wood will do-



I painted the back of the wood with acrylic paint.


The front will be covered with the design, So I only needed

to paint to the edge.



I glued the Valentine to the front.

Then used Distress Ink on the edges.

I had some red glitter so I thought I would use it on the heart.

I added the tiny letter to the mailbox.



On the back side I glued the stacked pieces of wood

to hold up the Valentine.



It stood up very well!


Here is the backside-



I made another!



His letter is removable-


I put them on a book self that needed a little decoration.








    The blocks are here.

Thanks for the visit!
