La Vie en Rose

I'm back and I have lots of red and pink to show you :)



For this, I altered a canvas frame and used a sweet image of a girl on it.

I also made Valentines tussie mussies for my kids. I can't wait to fill them up on Valentine's day!

I decorated some pegs that I picked up at Michaels.

I added retro Valentines images and trim- to a BE MINE banner that I also picked up at Michaels.


I made this mobile with paper hearts and a paper doll.


I made these pink faux cup cakes.


This year I only put up my Valentines decorations in one area of the kitchen.


Here's a closer look...


So for now it feels like I'm living 'La Vie En Rose'. I'll be back later to show you some Valentines swaps I participated in. Have a rosy week!

OMG. I just saw your head on the table LOL...
It's funny that you use "la vie en rose" today because I've been writing " C'est la vie" a lot today and I was looking on the internet for Edith Piaff. Ironic I think.
LOVE that you put your Valentines all on one table. I like it, but most of all I really want to learn how to make faux cupcakes too. I've been looking for tutorials and found a couple.
LOVE all your pinks and reds.
I just hung my sweet little heart pillow you sent me in my kitchen today. I so LOVE it.
It's grey and dismal today, but I'm happy. I got to talk to two blogging friends on the phone. Makes me smile.
Sending some LOVE your way
xoxo

Damn, Girl. It all looks so yummy! The cupcakes look totally real. They came out great. Everything looks very sweet. Do you try to find time each day to create or do you designate a day or two? I am so envious of how you manage to produce so many wonderful things. You go girl!!!

Love
