Whale you be my Valentine?

Whale you be my Valentine?  I decided today to take down my New Year's decorations and put up my Valentine's Day decorations in the hopes that it would break the chain of constant snow days we have been getting.  We will see if it works.  It snowed all day but stopped this evening so maybe the change worked.  Fingers crossed.  I made a Valentines card today with a whimsie doodles stamp.


This card was made using the following copic markers :  W-0, W-1, W-3, B93, B95, B97.  Viva Decor pen red and white gel pen.

Shower of Love

We had a lot of fun today making Valentines cards the girls and I.  They made cards for their Moms and I made this card.  Red is such a lovely color so vibrant and happy.





I spent a lot of time planning the design of this card (LOL) but it came out well.  We are starting the march toward spring with Valentine's Day coming soon and now that we are moving away from the winter holidays.

Princess

I love all of the Sweet November digi stamps.  This stamp has fine details so I found this one hard to color with my copic markers so I ended up coloring her with my colored pencils instead.

Just Chillin'

Ok it is cold here not just cold but really cold.  We got more snow this morning and are expecting more next week.  Can anyone say travel time?  The need/want to go somewhere warm is always on my mind now.  LOL


Just feeling like we are in the north pole here.  *smile*
