Project 81 - "VALENTINE'S DAY CRITTERS"!

My little guy's class, is having a Valentine's Party at school on Monday.
I am in charge of doing Crafts!  
Yeah!  
I needed to come up with something that 
both the boys and girls would love to do.   
 I saw this idea in a kit at Michaels,
 but if you know me, 
I have to find a way to recreate it
 "MY WAY" 
:D  
This is what I came up with!

Recipe:
PomPoms(Hobby Lobby)
Hot Glue/Gun
Foam Hearts-different sizes (Walmart)
Googly Eyes (Walmart)
Shimmer Sticks (Walmart)
 I hot glued the Pom Pom to the glitter side of the foam heart, .....
 Cut the Shimmer Stick, 2 pieces for the antennae.....

 Glued the Shimmer Stick pieces to the back of the smaller hearts....
 I used my Imaginisce, battery operated, hot pink glue gun for the first time....it ROCKS!  No more cords :D

 Attached the antennae's and 2 goggly eye's to the Pom Pom......
 Glued the "Happy Valentine's Day" to the back of the antennae heart...
 'Introducing My little 
"VALENTINE'S DAY CRITTERS"
 Aren't they just the cutest little critters!!
 :D
On another note.......Please, a word of caution when operating a HOT GLUE at 12:30 in the morning, while exhausted...... This is what will happen!  See the white heart shaped blister on my ring finger......
wow did it hurt!!   -(

Have a fabulous day!
Bug Hugs :D
