Valentine Cards

Take a look at some of the great hand made Valentine cards I received this week!  I'm a lucky girl!
The first one I received was from my bud, Carol T., back in Michigan!  Carol is a wonderful artist and works in all different media.  I have shown her watercolor and pen work before.


She made the heart on the cover which is actually a pin!  I'll be sure to be wearing it for Valentine's Day!

Next up from my bud, Susan, here in Ocala!  Susan is a wonderful quilter and I've  also shown her work several times on my blog.  Her workmanship is impeccable!

And I received this card from my bud, Mary A., another Michigan friend.  Mary is a very talented quilter and has shown her work all over.  She is in the process of setting up an Etsy site to sell some of some art work, which I'll be linking to within the next month.


Mary's heart was made using the same material as Carol's pin!  Such a clever technique!


I love Mary's work as it's always so bright and colorful and just makes you happy looking at her quilts or cards made from pictures of her work.  I can't wait to be displaying Mary's work on my blog for you to enjoy or purchase!

Of course I have received other cards and goodies (fudge by our own Jan M.!)...thank you each for the cards!!!
