I {Heart} You

Hello there...
Did you have a lovely Valentine's day?
I was quite spoiled with flowers, chocolates a cute teddy bear and even a sweater - I got to his heart

See, 2 days before I took DH for a birthday meal at Viva Brazil in the city ... They have a barbecue of 15 different meats and an amazing hot and cold buffet ... It's all you can eat all night long ... DH was in heaven! And in my case it's true that 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach' hee hee!

I'm sharing the card I made for him for Valentine's - To be honest my inspirations was completely dried up and I resorted to putting together a card using some of the many bits and pieces I had stored


Not your regular Valentine I know, but he loved it 


I also did a little book folding having seen the amazing work by a lady called Clara Maffei Here
I loved those animals and here's mine


Kinda cute huh?


I'll be back tomorrow for the new challenge at City Crafter ... Have a great day and thanks for looking in

Oh what a lovely card, and that book cat is so darn cute!
Glad you had a wonderful valentine's day, we are not big on V'day here, just went out for dinner, I do received chocolate from my students though, lol!

Sounds like you had a great night out, the food sounded fabulous. Maybe not a traditional valentine card but that's being you at your creative best. Love the colours and all the bits and pieces in your stash put to great use. The birthday meal you took your DH too was so very equal to the presents you got...lucky girl! x It was a good Plan!

Stella said...

That sounds great; seems a fab place to be. Maybe an idea for April? :)
Your card is not traditional red or pink but definitely stunning. Perfect for a man and I love the design.

My oh my your bookfolding; a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

Aren't you the smart one, Ros! Hubby sure earned brownie points this Valentine! Love your unique Valentine which certainly doesn't look like you had any mojo problem!

Your folded book is so cute!!

I like the colour palette you used for your valentine- it has a great layered look.

Wow...a fabulous card...and I love, love your 'book' cat...a stunner, how fun! Glad you had a nice Valentines Day, we opted to skip it for this year...the place you ate sounds wonderful...I would love that myself (and would gain about 50 #'s too..lol!)

Love your book project, Ros and your Valentines card is wonderful! Wish we had a restaurant like that here! We vacationed in Rio once and loved the same type eating...so nice when they come to your table with the meat to carve just what you want! Have a beautiful Wednesday!

Eeeep! The cat is so cute. Don't think I've seen anything but trees made out of books. Your card is wonderful with all those great layers. Big hugs dear friend!
