Today's mail brought two special valentines.
Portia, love that darling little couple and her "rose" hat,
that was so darn cute!
Mary Beth, I adore that sweet little pirate valentine with the
pretty 3D red valentines behind him. Thanks also for that ever so
cute "farmgirl" apron bookmark. I'm an avid reader and will get much
use from it. 
I will start mailing mine out in the next several days. Most
of mine will be different as I'm trying to use several embellishments.
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

I was thrilled to find two Valentines day cards in my mail last night!! Thank you so much Portia and Connie. You both made such gorgeous cards. I immediately put them up on the "card holder" in our dining room (it is actually a mirror shaped like a sun - I stick the cards on the "rays") and DH noticed them right away and commented on how pretty they are. Connie, thank you also for the sweet Valentine's Day goodie bag!

Thank you to Sarah for the lovely pink valentine hot air balloon
card, I put it up on display to enjoy through February. Also thanks
to Connie for your amazing heart shaped valentine with all the
smaller ones tucked into the darling paper pocket attached to the
heart. That was so clever! I never cease to be amazed at the unique,
detailed and wonderful creations all my farmgirl sisters come up
with. Thank you also Connie for the sweet treats.

Mary Beth,
Thank you SO MUCH for the lovely card and bookmark (something I can always use :))
I did mail mine out yesterday, but apparently didn't put enough postage on the envelopes because they came back to me today :( So, they are going out tomorrow with proper postage :)

Linda, I received your gorgeous card Saturday. I just love, love, love it! I put it on my MJF tree for all to see. It looks great along with all the other beauties from swap partners. Thanks, too, for the truffle you enclosed for my hosting....so sweet of you. I enjoy hosting the swaps and the truffle was Delici-O-So.
Hugs,

Portia, you are so welcome. Glad you liked the heart truffle. A friend
gave me one a couple of years ago at Christmas and I couldn't believe
how delicious they are (Thank you Russell Stover for making them! ).
Sharon, what a sweet, romantic, sparkly valentine you sent. Thanks
so much, I love it and the handy little ribbon hanger. I'm a tea lover
so can't wait to try the strawberry/chocolate tea. Thanks also for
the Ghiradelli treat!

Sharon Thanks so much for the beautiful handmade Valentine, I love it! and the wonderful tea. I have never seen that before but I loved it. I am on a mission to find it now.
Linda, I adore the card you made! I love it and the sweet little tucks are wonderful. I added them to my little valentine's collage that I am working on and they will be perfect!
Mary Beth, I love the card you made and the sweet little tag! Thank you so much!
I hope I can post photos of my little card display to post soon, it looks so beautiful... still haven't been able to replace my lens yet. :(

Mary Beth, thank you for the tip! I thought I had enough postage to take care of the bumps :)
Portia, I'm glad you like the card and the tea, it is one I enjoy too!
I purchased the tea here: http://www.republicoftea.com/strawberry-chocolate-red-tea/p/V10000/
but sometimes our local health food store carries it. It is considered a seasonal tea I think.
Linda, Becky and Sarah, so glad you like everything. This is a fun swap :)
Sarah I posted a link above on where to find the tea :)

I haven't been good about posting, but I have received some really beautiful valentine's cards since my last post. Thank you so much Portia, Sarah, Mary Beth, and Sharon! I love them all and it has been a real treat to find valentines in my mailbox! Mary Beth, thank you for the book mark/tag. That is such a cute apron stamp! Sharon, I love the sweet little bag with tea in it. I love the pretty label and I can wait to try that tea. I have never heard of such a thing.....strawberry and chocolate tea! :)
