I managed to finish up my Valentine's Day cards yesterday (the day before Valentine's Day). I really thought I got an early start and was going to be finished in plenty of time, but as always I was finishing up at the last minute. This first one is for my husband's brother.
I had a really great time using this adorable bear set! It's designed to be a Christmas/winter set, but since Valentine's Day is in February, I think it worked perfectly! I added a little red tag and some black die cut hearts that have been sitting in my bits and pieces stash for a while.
The second card is for a sweet older lady from our church. She has been in an assisted living facility since December, so a friend and I went to visit her on Valentine's Day and I decided to make her a little card.
And the final one is for one of my daughters. I used the same image/sentiment combo for all three girls, but changed up the layout and the combination of patterned papers for each one, so they are similar but different.

Stamps: My Favorite Things "YUZU North Pole Pals"; Verve "Take Note" sentiment
