"Hello, I'm" Name Tag Valentine

Once upon a time, I was a moody pre-adolescent. I had just gotten my own bedroom and inherited a large desk, filled with forgotten office supplies. Inside, I found some name tags. I suppose I was feeling victimized in some way, so I took one of these name tags, which said "Hello, I'm" at the top and wrote underneath, "feeling unloved" I put it on my bedroom door as a flag of my intense, preteen feelings. My parents got a good laugh out of it.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago and I see this amazing pin and wanted to make something like it. So I got to work on my Silhouette and pumped out this:

Simple enough and I really like it! I think it could be a fun card, or cool to use in a scrapbook layout. I plan on giving mine to my husband, who is totally beating me in the "month of love" love notes, by the way! And I love it =)

How I made mine: Cut out the whole design from red, then cut the middle rectangle and letters (again) from pink. Inserted the pink letters and middle rectangle into the design, gluing to the base paper of the card. Then I added in my sad, sad cursive the message in the middle. Done!

I designed this myself and thought I'd give it away as a free download! Happy Valentine's Day!

Chapstick Valentine made with Silhouette Cameo

I have a little tradition for the month of February.

 I call it the Month of Love and try to leave little notes or treats for my husband every day. I love to hide them in places he'll find later. It's not too hard to do, especially if you write up the notes in advance. Some places I love to leave notes are:

• His bathroom drawer
• His wallet
• His briefcase/backpack
• His suit pocket
• His running shoes
• His pillow case
• The bathroom mirror
• His car
• Inside his huge headphones
• On his keyboard
• In a book he's reading or one we're reading together (Like The Book of Mormon)
• By his hobby supplies
• In his clothing drawers
• On his computer screen/in his laptop

This year I had an idea for a Valentine plus a treat. I used my Silhouette to design this:

The inside looks like this!
