Hello & Happy Tuesday Everyone!
Happy, Happy Valentine's Day to ya! π
Do you do something special for Valentine's Day?
Or do you see it as just another day?
Me?
I do something extra special for my kids & hubby...
Like for breakfast we either have Valentine's Day Donuts
or I make a special breakfast - If I don't make a special breakfast
I tend to make a special dinner with dessert. I always give my
boys Valentine's candy & a sweet card -
This year I have yummy donuts for breakfast & I'm making
Shrimp & Lobster for dinner! Way cheaper than eating out! π
I also made some yummy blueberry cookies for dessert...
My son that's in the military got a Valentine's card & I baked
him some pan cookies to share with his buddies -
Hopefully he'll get it soon - they (USPS) sent it to Chicago?
It was suppose to go to CA. which is only 2 states away from me -
So the base could send it to him in Japan - So I'm a bit
disappointed in that π Luckily I used my Food Saver on them
so hopefully they'll still be fresh when he does get them....
We did a couple of "TEST" runs on how long his packages
would take to get too him - & it was 7 days - but since the Post Office
screwed up this package - it'll take longer now... UGH π¬

Since it is the day of LOOOVE... tehehehe I thought
I would share my monthly Card Swap card -
We were told to make either a Wedding/Anniversary/Love card
using Mojo Monday Sketch #287
-- I chose to make a Love card --
Isn't this the sweetest card? Well... I think so anyway! LOL

from SheryK designs called Sweet Owl

It's so sweet!! That little owl is absolutely adorable!! I love the papers you used!! Perfect take on the sketch!! I hope your son's package gets to him quickly. You'd think the post office would expedite shipments to our troops :/ Can I come over for dinner?? Shrimp - yum!! Lobster - yum!! Blueberry cookies - double yum!! Have a great day, my friend!! Big hugs :)

I hope your son receives his package with no issues. Sounds yummy!! Today is Williams late night at work so we had a Valentine's celebration with a Yummy dinner and candy yesterday. This morning I made him a yummy breakfast since I am off today. I will be having lunch/dinner with my sister & nephew today.

This is really a cute Valentine! I love that plaid paper in the background. Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine's Day!! Your card is so sweet! The owl is adorable and I just love all your papers (as usual)!!
I do hope that the cookies arrive for your son soon! I'm sure they'll be absolutely delicious and the crew will love them!
This is the cutest!! I love it as well & I really like the black background and undertone.
This sweet card is just cute as can be! Great take on that awesome sketch.
Valentines has been a bit boring around here as hubby and I are still getting over these colds we've had. On the bright side, I feel better today than I have in over a week. I know your guys have enjoyed their special treats. Hope your goodies make it to Japan safe and sound!
I love this sketch and even more so the beautiful card that you created using it. Hopefully your son will receive his package soon. I can certainly understand the frustration as I went through this when my daughter was in Africa for a couple years working on the Ebola thing for the CDC. It would take months to get anything to her.
This card is sooooo super cute!! Love the sweet little owl!! Great take on the sketch!!! I hope your son receives his package quickly!!
Have a great day.
