...and the party!








 














 






Everyone brings 30 valentines to exchange with everyone else, and I have bags with each guest's name on them to serve as "mailboxes", but this year we also made a paper pocket portfolio and then decorated it to save this year's valentines in.


Another fun and easy project was to make cards and bookmarks - drawing hearts or writing on them with white crayon and then applying watercolor washes for the color.  The crayon acts as a resist to the paint, and so the hearts show through.  Thanks to www.happyhooligans.ca  .
