Ok....so I needed MORE Valentine's Day Cards. I was sitting here thinking about Valentines Day and I always try to do something for my Grandma's because they are alone. Well, this year will be my Mom's first Valentines Day without my Dad (we lost him on the February 20, 2011) and so she will be alone also. We are running really low on men in my family....sigh.... anyway, I wanted to do something for them for Valentines Day. These cards are all done with scraps leftover from different projects. The ribbon on the first one is crinkle ribbon that I won from a challenge at Little Scrap Pieces. Thanks Karen! I LOVE it! The last one I wanted to see how it would come out using this really wild paper. It's not bad, but I like the top ones best. So....these are the cards I'm going to give to my Mom and Grandmas. There is actually an extra, and that is to give to my hubby for our anniversary or just because sometime. :-) Who doesn't like a card just because sometimes?????
