Design Adhesives, Designer Foils and Glitter exist for the just-in-timers who keep thinking that Valentine's Day is "not till next week."
A wood doorhanger, inked with sweet Orchid Crafter's Acid-Free Pigment Ink, is the perfect base for Candy Store and Be Mine Design Adhesives. Use a Stylus and White Oval Tip to apply the ink to the doorhanger and let it dry - really, really dry - so the Design Adhesives adhere properly.
Then, the fun part...simply burnish the patterns and apply Ruby Slippers and Cinnamon Spice Glitter, Lucky Penny and Cherry Pie Designer Foils. Add a poufy red tulle bow - and you're done!
Wouldn't this be the perfect Monday morning surprise to greet your sweetie?
