Love Day Conversation Hearts

I recently saw this cute Valentine's décor idea on Pinterest:

 See the blog here.

I just got a fun new toy for my B-day (a Cricut),

so I thought this would be a cute way to try it out!

 

I started with the wood hearts from Hobby Lobby ($1.99 each)

 

I chose some cute Valentin-ey paint colors to paint them:



 Painted the wood hearts:

(Not too crazy about the yellow, but didn't have anything better)

 

Used my Cricut to cut out each of our names, and stick them onto the hearts:

 

I stapled some cute gray and white chevron striped ribbon onto the backs of the hearts:

 

Et...voila!  A cute conversation heart Valentine decoration!

 

I realized that on the real conversation heart candies, the

writing is in pink/red.  I only had black vinyl, but it would be cute in other colors. 

I also think it would be cute

if you put the actual conversation heart phrases on it.

(txt me, luv u, hug me, etc...)

 

Happy Love Day!!
