Today I am here to show you this fun Valentines Day project that I whipped up.  My brain was so fried trying to come up something great to make to impress Ashley and her readers (haha), so I checked around some awesome blogs and found this tutorial by Lisa Leonard...

andhere is my version of her project!

It's pretty easy and it took me less than 5 minutes to make!  

All you need is some paint, glitter, a paint brush of course, and a canvas. 

  

Pour some paint on your canvas 

and spread with the brush, you can leave some texture to make it more rustic chic 

then I made a heart template and cut it out and lay it on top of the wet paint 

and pour glitter on the wet paint before it dries 

and ta da! There it is... 

I kinda over did it with the glitter didn't I? haha ...oh well! 

To see the original tutorial Here it is! 

Thank you Ashley for having me over...it was a blast ;) 

Ohhhh and Ashley will be guest blogging over at my place today so go check her out!
