nothing like hand made valentines in the mail.

i signed up for two valentine card swaps last month and what a joy it's been to see all these crafty valentine treats. I shared mine awhile back (i've LOVED the feedback from my valentines, thank you ladies & new friends. I had so much fun making them for you!) and I thought I'd share with you what was sent to me.

from Brandi {love her blog and layout}


from Nicki {craft goddess, i loved the vintage touch!}


left to right: from Molly {who prints lovely cards}, from C {is that crayon melts? reminds me of elem. if it is and made me smile}, & from Jillian {who's stickers on the front of her envelope made me giggle}


from Rebecca {a Texas girl like me!} & from Sarah C., one of the hostesses behind the brilliant swap. {your message meant SO much to me. I loved that you remembered it was my first vday as "a soon to be wifey!"}



from Erin, my dear Erin who didn't even have me, but included me on her list because she's just lovely like that. I loved her valentine she made with her two darling boys. She included tea and a heart cookie cutter with instructions that included additional info for chocolate cookies & "have a tea party."




i loved each and every one of them. thank-you valentines!!! and to sarah & angelina and carina for hosting such fun swaps.

Amanda, I LOVE your sister!!! and i've seen/heard about you through Erin, so I'm glad you said hi :) and started a blog! yay!!!! cheers to getting to know each other then! xo

Erin, really you are a doll. Love you!

Cassie, indeed there is! I'm so glad I participated because I didn't ever think of myself as crafty and so it was fun to put together anything that could be called "crafty." lol and oh, it gave me something fun to do during the worse winter snow we've had.

Jillian, I did :) lol i thought it was funny and i love a girl in frames. THANK YOU!! x

M, thank you. I have been feeling so yuck about myself lately (as i vented in email today) so thank you life partner ;) xoxo
