Sweets for my Sweetie! A Budget-Friendly Valentines Day Party

I had a blast styling this Budget-Friendly Valentines Day Party using my Pretty Paperie Valentines Day Collection Printables, around the house items & dollar store/clearance aisle finds! 

My friend Christine of Christine Marie Fine Art Photography came 

on over to help capture the cuteness!

I wanted to do this shoot to showcase my new printables... 

but also to show how, even on a budget, using DIY projects and inexpensive details, you 

can create a fabulous space!  perfect for a party or a valentines 

day photo shoot with your little ones!

Check out my Paper Heart Garland Tutorial to create the same inexpensive and pretty Valentines Day detail!

more DIY tutorials to come...

Big thanks again to Christine for her amazing photography!
