Memories!!

Just a quick post before work! As we get older I think some of us might forget the importance of Valentines Day, I know I don't  really think of it as "exciting" anymore which I know is a real shame, but do you know what? now that Fin and Gabs and all their friends are talking about Valentines Day it takes me back to when I was at school and wondered if I would get any cards, I also remember going to school with dread that I wouldn't and be laughed at!!!! To hear Fin and Gabs talking about it makes me chuckle and find myself wondering if they will get any!!! I think I might make an effort and make Will a lovely card ! Gabs wants to make her best friends one, how cute is that!! Just thought I would show this fab piece of artwork from Mary Engelbreit and ask you all, Do you remember feeling like that? Aah the memories!

  1. Thank you for showing this cute picture! I love Mary Engelbreit's work too, the decorative details and vivid colours remind me of pictures I loved as a child. Loved your button project in CB, by the way! Helen x

  5. Lovely picture, yes I remember those feelings. I never received a card at school :( But then again when I was 'that' age I thought boys were nasty horrid things :)

    Hubs, still sends me a card after all these years and still signs it with a question mark, bless x
