You mean the world to me...

I am definitely into the Valentine-making mode now! I've made 10 Valentines in the past two days, and this is one of them:

I've had this globe die for a while now and have been thinking about how I might use it. Then it occurred to me it might work as the focal point of a Valentine for the males in our lives who don't like mushy-gushy cards.

I first measured my globe (it's about 3") so that I could leave an appropriate space between the two lines of my computer-generated sentiment. Then I cut my globe out of green cardstock, glued it to a bigger piece of pale blue cardstock and trimmed off the excess.

My card was looking awfully plain (although I know most men like them that way), so I added some embossing at the bottom with a Swiss Dots EF and scored a line at the top of it.

As a final touch, I added a fuzzy red heart brad that I had in my stash.

Continuing to keep things simple, I stamped "Happy Valentine's Day" on the inside, and that was it! Card done.

This one came together so quickly that I made two of them. I'll be taking them to the thrift store to sell, and if they are sold before February, I may make a couple more.

I'll be sharing the rest of the Valentines I've made, and a few coordinating boxes, in the near future.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
