A New Valentine's Tradition

Making Valentine's Day cards has been a tradition on my side of the family as long as I can remember. Last year my mom and sisters came over to make cards with me when Daniel was only a wee 4 months old. We decided to do it again this year at my house. My mom and sisters have tons of paper, ribbon and supplies to make creative cards and they were graciously willing to share!

We had some special visitors come by to make a couple cards, Miss Harper, big sister Lucy, and their mom, Stephanie.

Here are just a few of the cards. One of us would make a card, and then someone would copy it but "one up" the first card, they just kept getting cuter and cuter as the night went on. I finally had to go to bed at 11:30, I think mom, Ashley and Laura stayed up working until 1am!

The inside of this card says, "Be my tweet heart!"

    How fun!! I am so glad your dear mom was willing to share all her lovely things with the ladies of the church too!! I would love to do that all over again. My mom, Tammy and I have had card making nights but it has been a long time since we've done it. I blogged about the card making at church if you want to see it. Let your mom know too if she wants to see it. :) Love all your cards!
