Valentine Bingo


I have a few blogs that I keep up with. One of my favorites is "The Idea Room".  She made some valentine bingo cards and I couldn't help but make some for my daughter's class.  There is even a template here.  Since I am ALWAYS low on ink, I had to print in grayscale but I just colored the hearts in with a marker to brighten it up a little.  Conversation hearts work great for the game pieces! 
My favorite part of whipping this up was sneaking a few candy hearts into my mouth while filling each bag up.....Especially the yellow ones, they are the best!

God multiplies what we entrust to Him!

For the past month, minus a few days, I have been working towards raising some money for a family that I know about that could use some financial aid. I originally was going to just go from Jan. 10 to the end of the month but I was afraid I wouldn't make anything so I extended the time period to make it for a whole month. I am days from Feb. 10 but I am so low on supplies that I am having to cut it short!  I am blown away with how much has been raised! January is typically my slow month and my personal goal was around $200-$300.  Well God decided he would teach me a lesson and show me just how much He can do.  He has taken that amount and multiplied it by 3. My grand total in sales is $963 and I can't wait to pass it on to the family who will receive it!!!

Thank you to all of you who made purchases during this time to make it possible:
