I made this simple XOXO Valentine banner to hang in my kitchen on my old barn window.  Would you believe I made it with some scraps? Decorating a simple shape like a triangle is a perfect way to use up scraps.  My background was made by stamping, adding strips of paper and random left over Cricut cuts. This is why I always cut more shapes than I need to when I use my Cricut.  I love being able to just grab things and create. For the large letters I used my chipboard x and o (positive and negative space) which were tucked away in my alpha organizer. Love that thing! Stamps: (Retired) Whoo Loves You (Constant Campaign) (owls, polka dots, You’re Sweet) “You’re Sweet” fit perfectly on the retired canvas badge button. If you need owls we have a new set, B1450 Owls for only $9.95 (Retired) Sarita Workshop on the Go Stamp- Argyle image (Retired) February Stamp for xo border. ( You could also use an X and an O from any of your alpha sets. It was so easy to fill in the gaps and embellish with red shimmer trim and Ruby Chevron washi tape. So, save those scraps! Plus! don’t be afraid to mix the old with the new and create something fun and fabulous!! With Love to you all and a Happy Valentine’s Day! Until Next Time- Capture Life! Sarita
