Love is in the air... and in the details!
Using a roll of vintage cotton seam binding
mini stamps, and a pencil eraser...
I created beautiful vintage ribbon for Valentine packages,
or Valentine decor...
I taped together the letters L O V E to hold them together
and get a straight line...
I chose letters that were not all the same font for interest.
and cut a heart into a pencil eraser using an Exacto knife...
My ink of choice is StazOn ink pad,
it is permanent and doesn't smear.
I printed the word "love" down the length of my seam binding then went back and printed a heart between every word.
The results are simply adorable!
I packaged them in 3 yard packs and added them to my
Happy Valentine's Day!
