Very creative Kris, loved it!!! I'm afaird mine will be simple this year, living in a small town doesn't offer much and I haven't been to the big city to get to Hobby Lobby yet since June! :( But simple is my word for this year so I guess I'm staying true to that! They are made from the heart anyway!!!

Thanks Sandy for the darling pink valentine, the inside was just
as cute as the outside and loved the little prayer.
Anna, what a creative envelope and I adore the sewn heart that
was part of your special banner....thanks for sharing a part of it,
I think I might frame mine.
My third valentine was from Sandra and how very cute your little
valentine birdie is! Loved the clever idea of using a map as
background for the card and the envelope. I'm loving all the
creative ideas I'm seeing in these valentines. Thanks Farmgals!
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

Anna, that is the sweetest heart. Did you take a picture of the banner when you had it together? Would love to see it!

Terri, you are so good to hold on to them until Valentine's Day! :o) I'm a total "immediate gratification girl" and have to tear right into them. LOL

Sue,
I've been receiving some beautiful homemade Valentines (Thanks everyone!!) and I'm working on making mine. But, the problem is, I can't find the list of addresses or names of the Farmgirls that I need to send them to. Could you please email me the list : ) Many Thanks!
Warmly,
Pam

I made 30 just because I still haven't been able to open the list. I'll send valentines out to the people I've received tomorrow. My kids loved helping me with this project.

I thought I might share the Valentine Box I made for this swap. I so so love Valentines!
I used an old Xyron refill box to start, some papers and other bits left over from other projects. It already has 8 cards in it! I topped it with a vintage glass doornob I have had for years.
Can you tell I feel like a little girl again?
: )
Hugs,

Hi Emily,
Thank you so much! I do not remember where I bought the paper, It is called Lost and Found by Jen Allyson. I must have picked it up somewhere for another project and then I realized it would be good for Valentine's Day too! So did you! I am excited to see your cards!
Hugs,
Terri
