Nathan's Super Valentines



Are you getting tired of me saying Pinterest yet?!?! Oh, and if you are sitting there wondering "what is Pinterest?" leave my blog now and head over there...NOW! (not that I think more than 5 people have ever read this, but whatevs)

Anyway, back to the craft at hand... I found two different tutorials on Pinterest for super hero Valentines. I took ideas from this one and this one, mixed 'em up, changed, tweaked, created, etc. and ended up with the end product.







I used the template from the Zakka Life tutorial to cut out the capes from cardstock that I had. I probably could have used my Cricut to cut out a cape, but I opted to just trace and cut. I had initially intended to use the printables from Little Bit Funky's blog, but then my plan changed. I only wanted to use Superman...and I didn't want to print all the super heroes out just to get the Superman logos. So, I searched for Superman logo online instead. I took the idea for the circles with the saying on them, but I made my own in Word and used my Creative Memories circle cutting set to cut them out.

I have NO idea how long these took to make, because I made them in several sittings, all the while being interrupted by someone or something...usually Aaron trying to steal all my crafty gadgets and supplies...off to go see if my circle cutting template is still in his play mailbox...
