Happy Valentines Day!

I actually did more for this holiday than I did for Christmas...Considering what the holiday is, it is a bit ironic. I had fun though, and that is what counts...The cupcake venture was a huge success and they all were delivered today and paid for. It worked out that Missy did the baking and made the frostings and I did the boxes, the fondant hearts and the decorating. We made a great cupcake team. I am glad the cupcake fest is over. I would weigh half a ton if I made them all the time! Missy got a treadmill and I already have one so if you dont see us, we are walking off cupcakes. Really!
I also made Jean's grandkids fabric Valentines for their teachers. It is the third year I have done them and I have declared it a tradition. I am happy I can do it for them....







I also made what I call "Bitter Valentines"! It is art therapy at its finest and it gives me a wicked sense of satisfaction...you know Valentines Day is a rotten holiday for anyone who has been dumped....So tonight I ate an ice cream cone from Baskin Robbins for dinner..The flavor was Love Potion # 31 and I finished these two cards....













I am sure there is a market for these cards...What do you think?



This week I also did the first month of this years Enchanted Ornament Swap. This is my second year and I always look forward to the monthly challenge and theme. The theme for Jan/feb was "dressed for winter". I made a fairy's winter dress ornament and some cute little enchanted paper tags....











Tomorrow is my day off and I am really looking forward to sewing...I have a pet quilt to work on for Deb and I want to finish the pink quilt top for the orphanage. I also want to go get some seeds and do some cold weather garden planting....I had no idea that things could grow even with snow on the ground....
Sending you all love and wishes! xoxoxo
