Remember the photo I showed last week of the Robin seen through the wreath? (go here) Mister has been throwing raisins out occasionally for it. Two days ago it was on a lower branch of the crabapple tree, so I threw out a handful and it didn't even fly away. This morning I went out again and, as soon as I threw some raisins onto the snow it flew down to them immediately. As I threw the remainder, the robin didn't even flinch - guess we have a new "pet"!
As promised, I'm going to show you the stunning Valentines I received from my Swap! Lots of detail, surprises, hard-work, originality, and loveliness (and a few bits of candy, too!). Thank you so much, everyone, for your pretty, pretty creations! ~
I am also linking this post to Bluebird Papercrafts Dolly Dingle Valentine Exchange! list.

I've been restraining, but I don't think this lollypop
is going to stay on that card much longer! Sandy made a
detailed double-sided tag, but she's definitely not two-faced!

I love the cross-stitch look of the letters, and
the piece of "taffy", too!

Simply sweet on the outside, precious on the inside!

Even though not a swap participant, Cindy sent
this beautiful tag with the most gorgeous
turquoise and red - and an "S" for me!

Wow!! Those are some amazing cards. Everything is just so commercialized. I forget about making Valentine's for loved ones.
I know you'll enjoy them for years to come.

Sue, what a fun swap! I've not received that many valentines in the mail since I taught school. And then they were only in my "valentine box", not in my real mail box. Fantastic little treasures! Thanks for sharing and thank you for hosting REDnesday every week.

Happy Valentine's Day Sue! What wonderful Valentines you received! What a fun swap this was. I loved the hanging one you made for us. Such a cute idea with the little house, I just love it! I can't thank you enough for joining me and sharing your art with me. You make every Wednesday the most fun! Elizabeth
I laughed when I say your image at the top with the robin and it mentioned "good". Everything in my post today had to do with good. Great minds think alike. But this great mind sure is wishing she got some of those cute Valentine cards! They're wonderful. And so are you.
Oh my, these are precious. What a blessing. I was lucky to receive one of Cindy's tags too. She does amazing work. I love your new blog design. Thanks for hosting as usual.
Hi Sue, I loved seeing your vintage valentine's. Happy Redensday!
