Greetings and Salutations, Sweet Cheeks! Yup, Miss Madge's Share the Love Initiative is chugging along. I've got your Valentine's DIY Inspiration covered!
First, a super sweet vintage Art Deco era Valentine. Aw, puppy love, how sweet is this? I used the original card to make a Pupcycled Valentine for iLoveToCreate! Feel free to follow the link and get the instructions after you download the image.
Here's a battle of the teen idols purse from the book, simple decoupage on painted wood. One side is Donny Osmond and the other is Bobby Sherman. I still have this little gem. Looking at this now, I'd probably add something around the edges of the image, crystals or ribbon...just to frame it more. Hindsight is 20-20. The idea is for you to put your favorite teen idols on your purse. I was honestly more of a David Cassidy fan...but there's a story behind these images and you can read it if you buy your own copy of Sparkletastic, which I have on my website for a super ridiculously awesome price of $8.00 plus shipping. (Which is a huge discount from the original $19.99 cover price!)
I'm still smitten with this playing card jewelry set, there are matching earrings. This is all about a little self love! I called it Feel Lucky. The miniature wooden cards came from the dollar store, but you could easily make your own.
Finally, here's a girlie good frothy confection of a purse, this one features iron on sparkly transfers, pretty frayed rose ribbon and a filigree SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS accent. This is A Girl's Life and is an homage to my long time BFF Tam. I surely do miss our girls' shopping dates!
Oh and while I'm sharing the love, check out my BFF Mark Montano's stunning new lampshade up-style DIY video tutorial! Isn't it romantic?
I adore this ornament heart wreath DIY tutorial from the fabulous Miss Jade herself over at Jaderbomb blog. How smart is this?
Now that's a whole lotta Valentine's DIY Inspiration!
xoxo

I recognized Bobby Sherman right away! Did you know that he served as an emergency medical person after his singing career ended? I don't know if he still does that. I was and am and always will be a Ricky Nelson fan (Be still,my heart!), but then I'm of another generation. Have a perfect daisy of a day!
Funny enough, in the first draft of this post I quoted Ricky Nelson!
I had a big crush on Davy Jones too, wish I still had my Monkees lunch box!
Cheers,
Madge
Love the purse, Margot! I am with you, David Cassidy was my idea of McDreamy!
