Good afternoon everyone.  My husband Peter has THE worst memory in history for remembering birthdays and anniversaries so there's NO WAY he's gonna remember Valentine's Day!!  Don't think I've had a card to mark the occasion for a few years now LOL!

I have found a way around that though, this is my card - from Peter ROFL!  I have also just downloaded this image from Karen's Doodles (link in sidebar) and don't want to part with it now - yes, a little selfish I know - but those hedgies are just too cute!!  I'm entering this into the following challenges:

I experimented a bit more with my pattered papers too and I'm really pleased with the result!!  I shall look forward to receiving it and act all surprised!! or, maybe I'll sign it with a question mark teeheehee!!!  No, I've actually shown him it already, and he's thanked me for saving him money LOL!  Maybe he'll put that towards a lovely bunch of flowers instead....... or a new big shot!

Thanks for stopping by my little haven!  Enjoy your day, hope you liked the card.
