Valentine Specimen Art

I have seen so much specimen art and thought I needed to try my hand....

I found these hearts at the dollar store....took the stick out and cut the hearts in half...
(little tip: don't use a serrated knife!)

Dug through ALL the frames...and I mean ALL the frames :)

And found the perfect one...

Put left over wrapping paper...yes it is...HOUNDSTOOTH...I am a little obsessed!

Hot glued the hearts onto the glass...

And here is the finished product...


Nice, simple and quick! And...only $2 for the packages of hearts!
