52 Reasons I Love You Cards... tutorial with ideas

I saw this idea on Pinterest and had to make my own!

It was hard at first to make the list but then I got on a roll and had plenty of ideas!

My Husband is going to love this! (Who wouldn't love to get this made from the heart Valentine???)

This is Very Easy and cheap!

I used a deck of cards (we already had), mailing labels, sharpie marker, hole punch, and metal rings from    office store (actually had on hand)

It took me a while to write down 52 things. I love my husband, but coming up with 52 reasons written  was not easy. My best advice is to think about little things, be original and creative.  Put something silly he does all the time or even something that mildly irritates you. Make it personal!

here are some ideas for "52 Reasons I love you...."

You sing in the shower

You make me laugh

You are an amazing Dad 

You can make me smile for no reason

You always make me laugh

You make me think positive when I’m negative

You can see the best in me

You cook me dinner sometimes

You always come up with crazy things to do

You’ll watch girly shows with me

You push me to do my best

You can make decisions when I can’t

You are not afraid to be silly

You have beautiful eyes

You still open the door for me

You can always calm me down

You make yourself laugh

You make me feel safe

You hold my hand when we’re walking

You have made the last 15 years amazing

You are not afraid of what others think

You always kiss me goodnight

You don’t mind when I don’t cook dinner

You’re proud to have me as your wife

You try to help around the house

You always say what’s on your mind

You stare at me lovingly

You like to surprise me with little things

You try to better our relationship

You like to shop with me 

You are very creative

You have great taste in Music

You always stand by my side

You take time to call just to say hi

Simply because you are you

On the Queen of Hearts card:" You treat me like the Queen of Hearts"

On the suicide King: "You would take a sword for me"

This should help get you started...throw in some personal ones....Have Fun!

Beer for your Valentine!

This is such a cute idea!

Beer for your Valentine...

Valentine's Day is usually for chocolates and flowers, but how about your husband or boyfriend? Nothing says "I Love You" like beer!!!!

Just kidding, but I love this unique idea, purchase a six pack of your favorite, or mix it up with six different kinds of beer and make these cute labels.

Add your own style and make some cute labels.

Cheers!

Fast and Easy Game Day Brownies

This fast and easy "last minute" brownie idea is from my friend Betty.

Betty Crocker!

A store mix and ready made icing!!!

I would place them on a green napkin to resemble a football field or on a team color napkin.

Ingredients:

1box (1 lb 2.4 oz) Betty Crocker® Original Supreme Premium brownie mix

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

Betty Crocker® white decorating icing (from 4.25-oz tube

Directions:

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Line 9-inch square pan with foil, letting foil hang 2 inches over sides of pan. Spray foil with cooking spray.

In medium bowl, stir brownie mix, chocolate syrup, oil, water and eggs until well blended. Spread in pan.

Bake 34 to 37 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours.

Using foil to lift, remove brownies from pan. With football-shaped cookie cutter, cut brownies into football shapes. Pipe on decorating icing to look like football laces.

(No football cookie cutter? You can use a knife. Just cut the brownies into 8 rectangles (4 rows by 2 rows). Trim corners of each rectangle to make a football shape.

For smaller footballs, cut brownies into 2x1-inch rectangles and trim to make football shapes.)
