THE HAPPY SCRAPS GUEST POST

Hi!  I'm Amy from The Happy Scraps and I'm so excited to be back here again today visiting The Wood Connection blog!  I LOVE The Wood Connection!  If you've never been in, you should go check them out!  Their projects are SO cute, fun and as easy as you want to make them anyone can do them!  Today I'll be sharing these cute LOVE letters with you. The letter set is only $10.95.

To finish these letters, I started by painting the sides and back of the letters {black and pink} and using the wood glue they sell at The Wood Connection, gluing the paper to them, using this technique.


 
I wanted to do something a little different, so I decided to make this cute little banner to hang from the letters.  I used my Cricut to cut the flags, hearts and letters.


Then I used bakers twine to string them all together!



This is one of those projects that came together pretty quickly, and it was so fun to do! So if you are looking for something cute, easy, and quick to put together for Valentines, head on into The Wood Connection!  And I hope you'll come and stop by The Happy Scraps and see what we have to share!
