Tom's Valentine

Hello to all you lovely people. I have Decided after being married 43years I would give my gorgeous hubby a Valentine card. I have never sent him one before because I am just not a sloppy person and I just don't do Valentine cards plus we had more pressing things to spend our money on when we were younger.

So he will have the surprise of his life on Feb14th. And this is the card he is getting . Don't worry he never looks at my blog so he wont see it.

The image I have used is a digi from Crafty Sentiments called "Bear Couple"  coloured as usual with promarkers,the backing paper is Donna's from Bearly Mine Called "Spring Blossom" this is being released on 15th Feb there are two sets being released then.The sentiment is from Crafty Sentiments. I do hope you like it. I just hope Tom does xxx

                                                              
I am entering this into
Crafty Sentiments "A Bear on a Card"
Sew Many Challenges "Anything Goes"
Dutch Dare "Buttons"
Prairie Fairy "For a SweetHeart"
Mami Doodles "The Magic of Love"
Do it with Digi's "Romance"

Hi Doreen

Oh I wish I could see Tom's face when you give him a Valentine card .. .. especially if you haven't normally shared them.

Poor chap won't know whether he needs to buy you one next year!! LOL!!! Yeah .. ... keep him guessing.

You have made a gorgeous card and the sentiment ticket is so lovely.

Have a great weekend.

Love Jules xx
