Thanks to Lori, Carrie, Sue and Ally for the beautiful Valentines that arrived in my mailbox this week. I found a fun place to hang my valentine collection so here's an updated photo.
Cheers! ~ Marilyn

I'm enjoying seeing how you all are displaying your lovelies, mine are in a cute box! Better late for some due to the weather so keep a eye out and wouldn't be nice to get pretty mail all month long! Enjoy!!

Thanks for the lovely cards I replaced my Christmas card wreath, it has snow flakes but since the weather has been so cold and winter is not leaving anytime soon, I will make it a "Valentine" wreath! I will try to post a picture.

Heather, I received your beautiful, hand painted flowers valentine,
today, thank you so much and also loved the neat postmarks on the
envelope from Loveland, Colorado. You even had a heart stamp!
Thank you everyone for all the special handmade valentine
creations. Laura, I loved your sweet tag pocket valentine with
the small heart and chicken and gold safety pin with pearls, that
was such a clever idea.

hands, I give with my heart .... |

| Linda, I am so glad you rcv'd my Valentine. I was getting worried as they had to go through an additional channel to get the special markings. I mailed them the end of Jan to the remail program so I am thankful they got out in time. Thank you to Laura, Sue and Roxane for the cute Valentines that recently arrived!!! I hope everyone had an great Valentines Day!! Heather |

Who has not gotten a card from me?? I sent them all out.... if you don't get one, please let me know and I'll send you another. I don't want anyone to think I didn't send them one! I think our post office has some crazy lazy people there!! I sent my sister a package over 2 weeks ago, she should have gotten it by now and she is still looking for it! ugh

Hi Pennie, I just have the one from Linda. I'm not sure what's going on with the mail!!! It seems that the only thing to come on time in the mail are bills and notices....LOL!! It's crazy! But I also wonder who's received my Valentines?

Thanks for hosting Sue this was a really fun swap!
I apologize for taking so long to get my final thank you's posted to Laura, Heather, Shelly, Misty, Roxane, Linda, Ruthie Ann, and Denise who each sent such beautiful Valentines. I've had family visiting from Vermont and things just got hectic for a bit. Here's one last photo of all of my valentines from 2014. I barely had room for all of the cards so they don't all show up well but I've been rearranging them frequently so as to enjoy all of them.
Cheers! ~ Marilyn

Hello gals, just a quick question...I have, so far, only received one valentine, so I was wondering if anyone got the valentine sent back? I'm not really sure what happened, but we are still receiving our normal mail. I hate to sound like the "poor me" because I did get one, but I was kinda disappointing when I didn't find lovely valentines in my mailbox.
