A very Special Valentine Present

I wanted to show all of you one more Valentine I received in the mail today….

This is from my new blogging friend Elaine….she started this project for me back in January and wanted to encourage my word for 2011 which is "FORWARD".

She is new to paper crafting and wanted some honest input. I was so amazed at this piece! Look a little closer…

The sweet vintage children’s images came from Nan over at “Bubbles of Joy”. Elaine did such a wonderful job with this banner!

I am hoping that you all stop by her new blog to say hello. Elaine is a very special lady, so please join me in welcoming her to our community! :)

Happy Valentines Day !!!!!!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend, Wayne and me and our friends Cheri and her husband Brian had a wonderful Valentine Dinner on Saturday….and like a goof I didn’t take photos during the meal!  We had King Crab Legs and Filet Mignon and Brian’s homemade rolls and rice. The steak will be eaten tonight as we all went a little crazy with the crab, thank you Cheri and Brian! :):)

Here is the table I set…..

I used my red Fiesta, and some glasses that I got at the dollar store, they look almost identical to the Fiesta ones…

I just got the red pitcher for my birthday with Kohl’s coupons and cash!
