I love to use my scraps for things, it makes me feel like I’m really being thrifty. I found this scrap of Designer Series Paper and it teamed quite nicely with the Baja Breeze so I used it for my sweet hubby’s Valentine Card this morning while he was out running. (Yes, he does that, it’s almost like a religion with him…he usually does 13-15 miles twice a week and participates in numerous half-marathons around central Texas throughout the cooler months. I play the support vehicle by dropping off water and whatever snack he wants at different mile markers along the way, you see if I were also running, who’d be doing that?? Lucky for him I don’t run!)
Anyway, the Riding Hood red pattern is the other side of the DSP and I used a piece of our beautiful White Taffeta ribbon for contrast. The heart image is from the Priceless Stamp Set (#115052 $28.95 pg 121 ’09 Spring-Summer Idea Book & Catalog) stamped in Riding Hood Red Classic Ink and backed with a scrap of Riding Hood Red Card Stock then Baja Breeze Card Stock. The last design element to be added was the Large Photo Corner with the silver brads. 
I couldn’t find a verse for the inside that expressed exactly what I wanted to tell him so I put together this fun computer-age type of verse and it worked out well, because his face had one of those great ear-to-ear grins and elicited a chuckle from him. Mission accomplished!
After 28 wonderful years of marriage it’s always nice to know you can still surprise each other from time to time.
I hope your Valentine’s Day is filled with sweet thoughts and kindness for your loved ones. Have a great weekend! Katherine
