engagement pictures

My friend Kendal (college roommate, sorority sister) takes gorgeous photos and she squeezed in a quick engagement session for us. Even though the wedding is in 66 days, better late than never, right?

 I love that the sun was setting behind us.

Valentine's Day art

I saw this pretty DIY on A Beautiful Mess and loved the idea of using the vinyl stickers as a pattern.
So on Sunday I made this. So easy. Added bonus-- no pressure of making my letters perfect.

supplies used
press on vinyl letters from the hardware store
2" Gesso brush
Pro Art gesso
Stretched Canvas {16x20}
Primary Red Acrylic Paint
a freestyle Liquitex brush because i thought it looked fun. and now I think this brand is my new favorite.

are you making anything for Valentines day?
Look at these cute {FREE} posters you can download from Oh Happy Day. I just printed one at Staples as an engineer print. 

I made this mini book last year.
