Gracious BE...
Who doesn't love them some Super Cute Valentines Day Decor?
Can I get an AMEN?
After I had taken down my bazillion Christmas Decorations,
from every nook and cranny in my house...
I quickly realized my home felt like I had just moved in...
A BLANK CANVAS...of sorts!
I digress...
I decided a couple little Valentines Day cuties were in order!
After combing through my Valentines Design Files...
I came across this adorable Froggie holding a Valentine Heart...
so in my Embrilliance Software I went a "merging"...
and this Sweet Font called Smoothie Shoppe surely fit the bill!
Next up was a Calorie LESS Cupcake...
complete with Sprinkles!
Such a Simple Applique design...
but she surely packs a PUNCH!
I love to get UP close and PERSONAL with my Embroidery Machine...
by using my magnifier glass to see all its "pieces parts" in action!
Don't YOU?

YEP...
I used a piece of Glitter Vinyl for the "frosting" applique part of the cupcake top...
I love love love the glittery shimmer it gives...
I mounted both pieces...similar to the way I do my Christmas Ornaments...
using Sticky Board, Batting, Fabric and Stitchery Tape...
I LOVE it when a plan comes together...
and let's face it...
with these super cute applique designs...
it takes so LITTLE effort!

AND...

Happy Valentines Day PEEPS!
