Yes girls, it's that time again to start thinking ahead to one of my all time favorite swaps, making valentines and getting valentines! This is our 5th year, hard to believe but I'm SO happy I started this, my homemade cards are such a treasure! I know it's not even Christmas yet, but with a yearly average of about 30 girls, it takes some time to make all those pretty cards, so I thought it was best to get the signups going. I usually devote the month of Jan. to making my cards, it sure does warm such a cold month! So, if you'd like to join in just sign up here, I'll ask for your info later on in updates. You have till Jan. 1 to sign up and we will probably being mailing by Feb. 1. Hope to see you oldies make it a 5th time and let's see some newbies too!

I would love to do this! I have been following the Christmas Tags Tim Holtz has been posting, getting all these great new techniques and I am itching to try some out. But my Christmas cards are pretty much done (or at least in design lol) so this would be a great way to indulge!

Thanks CJ, that is correct, you make a hand made Valentines for each person on the list, just like we used to do in school! Nice to see a repeater here! lol

Put me down. Hope to do better this year. Last year was my first time making cards. Received some beautiful cards. Will enjoy this.
