Hello everyone Happy Valentine's Day to all!!! I hope that this hump day finds you well and looking forward to some Valentine Day goodness with your honey. Not much happening around here. Still trying to get the crafty space done. Dragging my feet a good bit. Yesterday would have been Dwayne's and my 24th anniversary, so feeling a bit gloomy, but this shall pass. Dwayne wanted to get married on Valentine's Day, but it fell on a Sunday in 1993, so we chose the day before. Sure wish I could turn back time, but we can't so let's move forward.
On to today's cards. They were Pinterest inspired too, well ok, not exactly inspired but I completely CASed (again) it with a few changes or add on's. You can find the original card HERE. I think that brings me up to 12 Valentine's now. Supplies listed below in the recipe area.
As always I thank you so much for visiting with me for a spell! I love you all and your comments keep joy and sunshine in my heart!
Crafty hugs,
Card Recipe:
My Creative Time-circles, hearts, sentiments and stitched heart impression

What striking cards Brenda - love the striking contrast of the red and white, and the gorgeous dotty accents. I can understand you being a bit 'blah' at the moment - but as you say, this too shall pass. {{{{{Hugs}}}}}

Happy Valentines Day to you. I know how you feel about the anniversary. I was the same way. I told my son I would go out to dinner with them on our anniversary but when the day came I didn't want to go. It is such a sad time but you do get through it. One day at a time. I love your card today. The design is so cute and I love the combo of embossing and little polka dots.
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful, Brenda!! I love the designs!! The hearts and circles are fabulous!! Thinking of you on your Anniversary week and sending lots of hugs, my friend!!
