DIY No. 07 - valentines for him

don't you love when a project comes out just how you envisioned?  :-)  the chip board gives a nice masculine/rustic texture and the red interior peeking through a cut out heart is just enough "i love you" to keep your man from blushing.  overall clear, concise and super understated...which i think makes it all the more romantic :-)
