Will You Be My Valentine? Pt. 2

Yikes! It's 3 in the morning and I guess Valentine's 2010 is officially over. For my second Valentine's Day project I painted these little cards for all the food service workers. This one time I got a Christmas card from Japan that was hand painted, kind of like these, only it had poinsettias on it. It was the best Christmas card I'd ever seen! So, it definitely inspired me to paint all these butterflies and flowers and star shapes for Valentine's day. When I started. . .
. . .I quickly realized that hand-painting 110 Valentine's would take a lot longer than I originally anticipated. . .But thirteen hours later. . .
. . .the cards are painted, the messages are glued to the back, and I'm ready to deliver them!

I hope that everyone likes the cards even if they are a little late. . . I would love to hear how your week is going. Please feel free to comment (you don't have to have an account to do so) to say hi and tell me what you think. I'm also always looking for more things that would make your corner of the world a little more magical, so you can email me at lifeinfullcolour@yahoo.com if you have any ideas or if you want to help me create a project.

Shapes in the Bathroom

I had a hard time coming up with a stellar idea this week, so I decided to just continue spreading word of the blog. A little marketing in the bathroom stalls. So this morning I covered Hartung, Decker, and the Student Center, hanging little shapes in all the girl's bathroom stalls.

It was a wonderful adventure-complete with life threatening dangers!

I admit, the boys bathrooms were a bit more tricky. Usually I just surruptitiously glanced around to make sure there was no one around and then quickly. . .opened the door and stuck a shape by the light switch! Except this one.

Oh the scandal!

I'm gearing up for a few bigger things this next week since Valentine's Day is coming up. I usually end up feeling like left over crap on February 14th, but this year I'll be spreading lots of Valentines cheer, so I think it'll be okay:) Do any of you have Valentine's day plans or surprises? What would make your day better?
p.s. Please feel free to comment-you don't have to have an acount to do it:)
