Happy Valentine's Day! I'm just popping in to share a card I made for my son to give to my husband. They both say "I choo-choo-choose you" to each other all the time. I don't know how it started, but my son thinks it is hilarious, so I thought it only fitting to make a card with the sentiment on it. I built the sentiment with a Lawn Fawn alphabet set. The darling train is from The Alley Way Stamps, and though it is hard to tell, I paper pieced it with some patterns I stamped and slightly popped up the the roofs and smoke stack. Okay, next up are my son's class valentine's.
I have to preface these a bit. I had grand ideas for his Valentine's, which included a cutely packaged non-candy gift. Then he got a really bad cold, and I honestly didn't think he would make it to school the next week (he only goes 2 days a week), so I didn't even tell him about exchanging Valentines because I didn't want him to feel bad for missing out. Fast forward a few days. Late at night I realized that he was well enough to go to school and I had no Valentines. Yikes!
