King's Valentine's Day Gram #70
“I’m All Shook Up! Whoo ooh baby!” Christelle M. has been singing “I’m All Shook Up” all day. Why is that? Well that’s because Valentine’s Day is coming up. This one Elvis Presley fan has a few things to prepare for before sending the “King” her love. Christelle can’t just send a little valentine’s day card with just To: Elvis From: Christelle . No, Mr. Elvis Presley has to have a fantastic valentine’s gram. First she starts out with putting on Elvis’s music throughout her living room and connecting kitchen. She’s even got some white bell bottom’s on, with the wide flare pant legs. Her little beagle puppy “Smooky” was waddling with her with every step she took. When she swayed to the left and shook her hips, Smooky would pounce and jump up on her legs. Next Christelle gets out her scrap booking box filled with all kinds of tools to help her make a fantastic valentine gram. She gets out some big pink poster paper, some glue sticks, markers, scissors and a couple plastic bottles filled with metallic glitter. Before she makes the final project, she sketches out a design of how she wants the gram to look like. Nothing too extravagant but not too subtle. Her first step is to write out “You Got Me All Shook Up” in big bold red letters. Then takes a glue stick and outlines the words with the glue. Then she goes crazy with the glitter and puts it in her hands and just as “all shook up” came on, she shakes her hands and glitters her glue outline making the words pop out. Next she cuts out a little red heart and glues that to the bottom right of the poster, and signs “Your Biggest Fan~ Christelle” with a red marker. Then a thought hit her, rhinestones. She takes some red and white rhinestones out and puts a few on her name to make her signature extra snazzy. Now that the gram is done and 30 minutes have passed to make sure the poster is dry, Christelle gets out her giant manila envelope and writes out her address and the address to send the valentines gram to. After carefully placing the poster in the envelope, she places a few stamps on it. On the back of the envelope, is a small sticker of Christelle and Smooky that she had custom made just for her valentine’s gram. Hopefully her valentine’s day gram makes the “King” all shook up.
