Chocolate...

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Wow, it has been a crazy few weeks around here. I had this nasty cold that just exhausted me. Even after the cold was over which was Wednesday, I still needed naps and lots of sleep. I was still able to get some work done since today is Valentine's Day!!! And what better then chocolate on Valentine's Day. Now, my husband and I don't really celebrate this day other then a date. He doesn't buy me anything which I like. I don't like flowers since they die in a week or two, so I consider them a waste of money. I don't want jewelry or anything else. I do make him a card however. But this card is not the one I'm giving him.

This card is the card I made for the shoebox swap we did at my 2nd upline's meeting on Thursday night. It was a lot of fun. I got the bite mark idea from another demonstrator. Isn't it great?! What I love the most about this card is how I gathered the ribbon under the jumbo brad. Love it!!!

So here it is...
