Three is the magic number every day for me! Three cards a day and don't they just look lovely going around my picture window in the dining room.
Thanks today to Jennifer Juniper, Janet, and Clare. They are all just so beautiful. I might start making next year's cards already thanks to all the ideas you have given me.
Enjoy the lovely weekend.

Ok, my son is really jealous now. So he ate my candy. He wanted to know why I was getting Valentines and he was not. He is homeschooled. If anyone has a child that would like to exchange valentine's with my son, please email me. We plan on creating fun Valentine's from Family Fun magazine and website (we have it already picked out, and I just have to get the supplies on Tuesday).
Send me an email with your child's name and we could do the swap. Being homeschooled has it's downside on Valentine's Day.

Thanks everyone for the Valentines. What a wonderfully talented group you are!! My husband gets the mail every day, and he's wondering just what's going on. I tried to explain, but he has a real hard time with "making friends" over the internet. Oh well! I'm going to work on my Valentines today as I'm fixing the "Super Bowl" food. Just my husband and our daughter and I are going to be here to watch the game, but we still need to have festive, party, football food!

I came home yesterday to three! Thanks to Sharon & Amanda, Patricia and Clare for your cleaver ideas and creative touches on these valentines! So many neat ideas to copy now!! LOL Mine that came back and I had to owe postage on was due to a perfect square envelope? Go figure, so I"m making new envelopes and will get the rest out tomorrow!

| I have some wonderful ladies to thank for their beautiful cards. Thank yous to Anne, Clare, Sheryl Lyn, Lindy, Bonnie, Patricia, Susan, and Janice. This has been my best Valentine's Day since I was a kid. I am enjoying this so much. Once the cards come down off the patio door after the holiday, I'm going to put them all in a scrapbook. It will be so pretty. |

Greetings form this cold island 30 miles out to sea! 
THANK YOU for all the wonderful Valentines! Mine are just about finished and should all go out this weekend. The cards have been such a blessing to me. As most of you know, my 14 yo son came home from a youth group ski trip with a severe concussion 2 weeks ago. He is fine now and bored silly since he can't do anything "fun" yet. But.....we don't have insurance and the bills are arriving; so far we are up to $7500~YIKES! The Valentines have definitely helped to brighten my trips to the PO box~thank you.
Clare, we homeschool and are having a Valentine exchange with the other 5 HS families on the island. Moms are included, so all in all we'll each get 23 Valentines. Are you part of a group you could do that with? We'll be having a party complete with games, goodies and even some fun poetry writing activities. I'm looking very forward to it.
Again, I thank you all!

Thank you all for the beautiful Valenties, they are all amazing artistic creations. I went to the mailbox and it was stuffed with Valentines. It made my day. I am hanging them in my entryway for all to see. They are all so beautiful. Thank you.

Thanks everyone for all the wonderful valentine's. I loved checking to see what the mail holds for me on each trip to the p.o.
They have become quite the topic of conversation at my house! Some people don't get it and others do, but I say it's been lots of fun!
with a happy heart |

I had so much fun making and sending the Valentines that I wanted to do more, but who to send them to. So last night I made one for DH. He really liked the ones I did for all of the Farmgirls, so I did a special one for him for V-Day.

Just want to thank all of you for the cards. I have recieved about 20 now. My swag is stuffed with very little fabric showing now. I made about 25 more cards to send to family as it seemed like such fun. I hope they lift their spirits and brighten their day this winter, too.
