I just finished Mr OP's Valentine. It's a big-un this year 9" x 9" and so full of fun. I'm glad that I started it early because I haven't been feeling too froggy this week (actually stayed home from work 2 days).
I'm still not 100% but I'm on the mend. We've got a birthday party this weekend for Logan (great nephew) - he'll be 5 on Sunday. There's nothing more fun than seeing the joy on a child's face is there?
Have you joined the Pinterest craze yet? I've been there for awhile, but haven't been too active. I've added my button to the sidebar if you'd like to follow me. Let me know if you have boards and I'll follow you right back.
Is anyone doing anything special this weekend for Valentine's Day? Or will you wait until the 14th? We're just doing cards this year.
I may make something special for dinner on Sunday but nothing too extravagant just some good home cookin'. I'll have to see what looks good in the Pioneer Woman cookbook this week or go for one of his favorites
.
I took a little liberty with my quote from Emily Bronte for the inside of Mr OP's Valentine. I don't think that she'd mind do you?
My apologies to Beverly ...I forgot to send you over to visit our hostess for Pink Saturday. So if you haven't visited yet, what are you waiting for?@

What a lot of love and thought go into a card like this. I bought my card at the dollar store. I will work on writing a love letter, though. It's the very least I can do. Oh and a good supper...perhaps a steak supper that night and strawberry shortcake for dessert. See how nicely my plans come together when I think about it.
I'd join Pinterest if I could...I don't have or want a Facebook account and they are linked. One can't have a Pinterest account without a FB account. Strange, but true. It doesn't prevent me from visiting for ideas, though.
Your Valentine is so pretty. It reminds me of the antique Valentines that are so rare today.

Oh, very pretty card, Leann. Nice job! Nope, no plans here but I bought a nice card. (Also sent out about 20!) We'll have to see what we can do to celebrate as the day draws closer. Susan
LOVE your sense of style, so yep, I'm going to find you on Pinterest. I'm on there too.
The valentine is very pretty! The fried chicken dinner sounds so good. I have not joined Pinterest - yet. I spend way to much time on the computer now, but may cave in later on.:D
Sorry you have been under the weather - lots of stuff going around out there. Enjoy your weekend.
LOVELY card, thats all we do too is cards. We get a lot of fun out of seeing all the cards our grandchildren get at school--thats really fun.

Sweet post. Love your LOVE valentine! I'm loving Pinterest, too, but I have a few challenges with it. Happy Pink Valentine Saturday!! ~Lorraine ♥♥♥
I'm the slightest tad envious of you that you are so ahead of me! I lost the Valentine I made Rick and I'm in the midst of making his gift, but we're going away this weekend! I may feel the vapors come on Monday morning! Lovely!
Sweet card you made Mr.OP. Thanks for the link to the Craft channel I will have to check it out.
Love those lace curtains blowing in the breeze! It looks so serene!
You know your hubby will love that gorgeous Valentine! You have done an amazing job!
Have a happy Valentines Day and HPS, too!

Happy Pink Saturday LeAnn Sweetie...
I love this share. How romantic to make your own cards. Yours looks so elegant. I love that old time look that you gave it. I can't wait to see yours that he makes for you. Don't forget to share with us.
When I asked my honey what he wanted me to cook for him for Valentine's Day, he also asked for fried chicken. We are good old country kids when it comes to cooking. Happy to hear that someone else loves corn bread as well as me.
A beautiful share sweet friend. Have a gorgeous weekend. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
I just love your Valentine!! I've got to get started on my honey's card or I'll never get one done. I too have started the Pinterest craze. I went over and am now following you. I've been pinning like a fool this week...LOL. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hugs, LisaKay

Such a gorgeous Valentine, it reminds me of the original Victorian cards I love.

Lovely thoughtful Valentine - I'm sure your husband will treasure it. I too made one for my husband and am planning a nice dinner and dessert, staying in and being cozy. Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Pink Saturday to you, Dru
No doubt your hubby will be very pleased with his valentine. Trust you get one as nice.
Happy Pink Saturday
This is so pretty, divine.

I have no doubt that Mr. OP will love the Valentine card you made for him, it's absolutely gorgeous! One can tell it was made with lots of love:-)
Not doing anything special to celebrate Valentine's Day over here. Steve was here last weekend so we got to spend lots of time together...that was my Valentine treat:-)
I discovered Pinterest just a few weeks ago and I'm addicted! lol So many fun things to discover on there. xoxo

Your card is positively stunning!
I made my hubby a 2" x 2" size card. Tee hee...
I've been to a Valentine tea today and hosted one yesterday.
Happy Valentines day!
