Will you o'fish'ally be my Valentine?

Click here to view the Pinterest version

Well, I just LOVE Pinterest and so many things on it. However, I do not always have the time and money to do some of the projects, so I like to find a Happy Compromise. While Browsing Pinterest one day, I saw these adorable homemade Valentine's day cards and thought there has to be a cheaper and easier way to achieve the same cuteness. I noticed the same day that  SeeHere was offering 25 free 4X8 cards. So, I combined the two ideas and created my own version of this card. It only took a Pinterest idea, less than $5, and less than 5 minutes... Happy Valentine's Day!!! 

My Version

Here are also a few more of my favorite Pinterest Valentine's Day ideas:

  4. Welcome to the blogging world! Your mom and I met via my blog probably 2-3 years ago, and although I've never met her, and we both live in N. GA, I just think the world of her! I can't wait to keep up with your cuteness! By the way, I love the treats ... I'm a big time paper crafter and they are right up my alley! Blessings, Becky

  11. May May - Honey just welcome abroad the Blogging Express! Your Mom is always bragging about you & she is so proud of you. Sometimes you just never know where the path might lead- it becomes quiet an adventure.

    Your babies are so precious! That little "brudder" is certainly growing! Did you wonder IF you would ever get to sleep a while night long again? LOL
