LOVE crafts!

Here's a quick and easy Valentine craft. Great for all ages!
(and cheap too!)

Find some scrapbook paper you like; construction paper or fabric would work too.

Find a small frame. 
(don't you love the heirloom frame I recently picked up at goodwill for $.50?!)


Dump your extra/old scrabble pieces out. Brainstorm a small cross-word.
(my example will be below)



Cut your paper to fit the frame.
I took the glass from the frame and traced around it. If kids are helping, you could trace around the glass and let them do the cutting.

Then, hot glue your letters to the paper. 
I used a straight-edge, it was the perfectionist in me...



Voila!
A cute, inexpensive craft that could also make a great gift!
