Yes girls, it's that time of the year again! My 4th annual handmade Valentines swap is gearing up, so if you'd like to join us this year please sign up here. So many have done this with me each year and it's been so much fun, the talent you girls have is inspiring to say the least! Just in case you are new, all we do is make a old fashioned Valentine card for each person on the list that you will get once this has been closed. The average made was about 30, I think our first year was close to 40 and what keepsakes! I look forward to this each year now, it's like getting tiny treasures in the mail. The deadline to enter is Jan. 10 with a mail date of Feb. 1 so everyone can enjoy them in time for the day of love. This will also be posted in a couple of other departments so all can find it but this is the place to sign up, so get your creative juices flowing and let's make some Valentines!

Thanks Marybeth for posting the photos, and so glad your joining again this year! Marybeth has been in this swap every year with me, thanks MB! Girls, you can create a card anyway you like, it's a great way to get creative and the results are endless! One year, a girl sent a handmade giftie to each one on the list, tea is a nice add in too. It all just depends on how much postage you want to spend. But all required is a handmade card. You can use all sorts of materials and the dollar stores are already stocking the shelves with Valentine stuff! Nice to see some newbies getting in on this and of course any old swappers are welcome too, just sign up here and later will get your mailing info for the list. Your a doll MB!!

Sign me up. I will make one for each. I have something different I'm making. It is card-like though. I've already started. Thanks for hosting this!
Have a good day!

Oh I'm sorry Linda, there's no telling how many sign up and each one gets one and so do you in return. Let me know if you can't do it for sure before I ask for mailing info. Hope you change your mind.
