Hello, everyone! I'm bringing back a seasonal favorite -- The Love Express Valentine Train! Isn't this adorable? This particular version is constructed from (the retired) Sending Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, Heart Shaped Treat Cups and Epoxy Brads. This little train is ready to chug-chug-chug some definite cuteness into your holiday decorations and festivities. Each 
little car can be filled with special treats or tiny gifts, making this a great centerpiece or party favors for the little ones. Imagine sending each child home with their own train car filled to the brim with goodies! Limited Kits are available (with this style of paper) for $17.95 each which include all the die-cuts, punch-outs, brads and everything else you need to create the engine, caboose and two train cars. All you need are your own adhesives, stamps and tools (see the list below). Tutorials are available for $5 each and can easily be adapted for use with other papers and themes. Shipping to the United States only, please. Tutorials can be e-mailed around the world!
If purchasing the kit, the entire project should be able to be completed within 2 hours. You can order kits and tutorials by selecting your option and clicking on the PayPal Button below. E-mail me if you have questions!
Supplies and Tools needed to complete the kit include: SNAIL adhesive, Sticky Strip, Stampin' Dimensionals, Crop-a-dile or Hole Puncher, Pinking Hearts Border Punch (or any other border punch), Bone Folder, Paper Snips, paper scorer, Piercing Tool, Sweetheart Stamp Set (optional, but nice) and the Stamp-a-ma-Jig (again, Optional but helpful). The Tutorial includes a complete list of all needed supplies and tools. The kit contains Box #2 and Mini Milk Carton Die Cuts. For Tutorial purchasers who who do not have the Big Shot Dies needed (and for our friends overseas where the dies are not available), instructions are included in the tutorial for alternate boxes which will work with this project.
If you've purchased Inspiration in Action kits and tutorials in the past, you know you won't be disappointed by this latest offering! You can read what others have said by clicking HERE.
Tutorial can easily be adapted for different seasons and occasions -- imagine a circus or birthday train, a patriotic theme or Christmas or Halloween train? The possibilities are endless!
I hope you have fun with the Love Express! I know I have!!!
Absolutely adorable!
