I don't understand why Cupid was chosen to represent
Valentine's Day. When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a
short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon. ~Author Unknown
While I appreciate the thought behind Valentines Day, I do not celebrate what I consider to be a "Hallmark Holiday" plus one should not be waiting for one day a year to show someone they are loved and appreciated. I don't buy a card for my husband and I certainly do not expect a card from him.
Now, that being said, because there are so many people out there who love and celebrate Valentines day, I do make them for the parents, aunts and a few friends and this card is one of them.

My husband feels the same way about Hallmark holidays, so we don't celebrate either. That's ok, I have fun making the kids a Valentine card!!
This is SO pretty, Cara! I adore the fun layering and fabulous clean feel! Thank you for joining us at Great Impressions! HUGS! :) Mynn xx
Very pretty card! I confess I'm glad hubby and I exchange cards and candy every year. I get a huge bag of peanut M&Ms. He gets Millionaires or Turtles. We'll be 29 years married in May. Kinda tradition by now, lol. xoxo
