I figured it out. I went and looked at the computer print out I had and no aunt Jenny on it looked in email folder no aunt jenny on original either. Are other peoples like that. Since I still have to make one for Bridge and Jennifer jupitor I will make one for aunt Jenny I am not sure why it isn't on my list but I have your address from other lists. Your three will different from every one else's as I don't want the problem with the post office again. I hope that is ok.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe my blog http://sunshinescreations.blogspot.com

I am soooo excited!! Got my Valentine's done tonight. Felt like a schoolgirl again! (We watched that sweet Hallmark movie tonight and it was the perfect atmosphere for Valentine-making!)
Already have stamps on most of them and have other stamps in the truck, so off to the mail they go!!
Aunt Jenny, you are not on the list I got? Send me your mail address and I will whip one up for you too.
I sent one to my momma, my best friends and everyone I love! This was great.
Love,
Sheryl-lyn |

Hello, ladies. I can't tell you what a delight to find Valentine's in my mail when i got back from vacation. Peeking out from all the junk mail and bills were sweet pink envelopes (mine was intact, sunshine, although the envelope had a small tear where the bump was. Perhaps a different post office does hand cancelling? Ours is ONLY hand cancelling in Tyler Hill, but the one in town, Honesdale is ONLY through the machine)
I am working away on mine. They are taking longer than I expected, but I have over 20 complete now. I will have them mailed off by Friday or Sat. Please "fluff" the hearts when you open it (you'll see when you get it. Things get flattened in the mail, and it has a slight 3D effect.
I am hanging mine up on a swag made from ripped strips across the width of Valentine's fabric and tied and draped over the sliding glass doors in the back of our house. We eat at the table there, looking out at the birds at the feeder and sometimes deer and wild turkeys. I love that I have decorations for this Valentine's day as I have usually been camping in Florida at this time of year. My daughter is enrolled in public high school this year, so we only took 2 weeks off to fly down and see my parents this winter.
I pulled out fabric hearts I made one year when Maddie was little from pink and red felt and denim from hubby's old jeans. Even found an old doll I made from pink yarn.
I have to say that Valentine's Day seems sweeter this year with all the notes from you farmgirl friends. I received ones from sunshine, tina michelle, denise, nancy jo and sandy. Thank you so much. Mine will go out the end of the week. Let me know on the site when you get them. Sometimes our new mail person is not so great. I got two pieces of mail for other people in my held mail from my trip, and some Christmas cards from the swap never did arrive to me. (Sure it was my mail person's fault. She is a fill in until they get the new full time person. Just seems to be the way. No bad intentions there, just the way it has worked out for the past several months.) I think I will mail them from town on Sat just to be sure.

| I got cards today from Denise and Nancy Jo. Thanks girls, the cards are so pretty. Nancy, I did get a hole in the envelope where the decoration poked out, but no damage, it was fine. Thanks again. |

A QUESTION!!!! I'm doing my envelopes today and need to know if No. 26. "Sharon and Amada" is correct or if it should read "Sharon and Amanda Crosswhite"?
Thanks to all who have sent valentines already. I have them up on my bulletin board in my home office and they are brightening up the room!

| I've received five Valentines so far. Mine will go out the first week of February. I have decided to put all my cards in a scrapbook so they don't get lost or torn up by my grandson! This is such a treat...thank you everyone! Susan |

Denise and Nancy -
Got your cards yesterday in the mail, so cute. I pulled out my heartshaped hat box and have all the cards in there on display on my desk in the livingroom. They are all very cute, I always can't wait till I get home to see what's in the mail.
I have to get some more stamps and then I can mail the rest of mine, hopefully by the end of this week.
Thanks again to all.

Thanks Sue for the answer to my question.
I sent out about 2/3 of my Valenines today and need to make a few more so I can finish the list.
I'm putting the ones I have received on a bulletin board, with my recent birthday cards, and will take a pic when it's done to show them off.

Ack, about 5 came back yesterday with a note saying they needed extra postage, so they will go out again on friday with the rest of them, not sure why they need extra postage, will have to ask, they are not heavy? Oh well! Thank you Anne, got yours yesterday, just beautiful and boy, don't we have a bunch of crafty ladies here!!

You are welcome Sue and everyone else that has gotten a card from me so far. I just mailed off the rest this morning. I am amazed at how fast some of you are getting these, last time on the Christmas exchange it seemed to take a week + for cards to get to everyone. Guess it is because there is not all the holiday mail "clogging" up the system.
