Today’s card was really driven by the A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E Doodlebug Designs Valentine Paper. I thought this postcard part of one of the papers was too stinkin’ cute not to use. I jazzed it up with a bit ribbon (one of my all time favorite sheer polka dot ribbons from May Arts) and some sticker letters from Jellibean. My friend steph created a cute handmade project life card with her black glaze pen, and she reminded me how awesome those pens are so I used that to write “my funny valentine”

    Such a sweet, sweet Valentine!! That paper is too adorable.

    Love your “To My Funny Valentine”. Not sure who your intended recipient is, but it reminds me of recently when I was reading a blogger’s profile. She was mentioning her amazing husband who is supportive of her crafting. I must have been tired because I read: her “amusing” husband! Ha. I thought to myself what a sweet and clever way to describe an eccentric, but dearly loved man…….like my dear hubby!! So I might make a “To my Amusing Valentine” for him!!! ๐Ÿ˜€

    I recently bought a set of the Glaze pens and am really enjoying them, too!

    I love the idea of this 2 week long blog hop — I get just enough inspiration for the day. This postcard is so sweet. Is the stamp affixed with foam?
