Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!  No matter how you celebrate, I hope you have a special day with those you love!

We don't celebrate as much as we did when our children were younger. And after 32 years of marriage, well I know the old guy loves me...I don't need a specific day for him to show it because he shows it every day! We still exchange cards (with our kids, too) and usually have a nice dinner and treat. This year, it's going to be take out (we don't brave restaurants on V-Day) and homemade cake pops. My first attempt at cake pops (photo coming soon) and I think they turned out ok. Not fabulous but ok. They taste good (yes, I sampled) but they're not much to look at. And talk about a lot of work! Bakerella I am not!

At any rate, yesterday I mentioned that my mojo had slipped away. Well today, I forced it out of hiding because I still had cards to make for little old February the 14th! Here is the card that was perplexing me the other night, now finished and I'm finally happy with the end result:


This is the exact same card I was trying to complete the other evening but I was trying to add watercolored flowers to the image and me and watercoloring just do not see eye to eye! So I dove in tonight with no watercoloring on my mind and the card turned out as I had hoped so all's good.

All products are from Papertrey Ink (except the washi tape, which is from various sources).

I have one more Valentine card to share with you in the next day or so and then it's on to Easter. Wasn't it just Christmas like last week??

Have a great day!
