I just can't resist any longer. There's no waiting until Valentine's Day, I just have to share!
LOVE IT!! Doesn't this just make you smile?
Yesterday I spent a few minutes with each kid to design their valentine cards for this year. We browsed a bit through iphoto and each of them chose their photo, we collaborated on the text, and then I spent a few minutes designing each one.
Like I said, Payton selected the photo, we chose the text, and when he left the room I had some fun. Wah-ha-ha. When I showed him the final result he laughed and laughed. But he wasn't completely sold on the idea of passing these out to his classmates. I begged and pleaded and bribed and eventually he gave in. Such a perfect photo and sentiment . . . I would have been heartbroken if he passed up this opportunity.
Then there was Anna. She was dead set on using this photo from the first day of school.
{Anna is known in her class as Anna B because there are two Anna's}
It's so perfectly pink, glittery, and girly. The Glitter Heart is a free download from Design Editor. And the Glitter Letters also come from her shop. So cute. With a little tutorial I even learned how to add a drop shadow to the digital elements! I'm definitely feeling smarter today.
And finally, there is Conner. Once again I must stress the fact that the kids chose their own photos.
And he also chose the text. It is sooo Conner. Which, I guess, is perfect.
