Valentine's Day Card and a Funny Moment

I made some Valentine's Day cards for my family yesterday.  I know I could have gone out and bought them each a nice card but I was feeling a little creative.  Besides any opportunity to use up my scrap-stash is a good one, right?  I could have a very lucrative yard sale selling some of my scrapbooking supplies but I am now off the subject:-)......  So here are some pictures of the cards I made.
The card above was for my oldest son.  The paper is from the Cobalt Edition of Project Life.  I also used an Ali Edwards stamp and some washi tape.


I made this card for my daughter.  The paper and the butterfly embellishment are from a Tim Coffey scrapbook kit that I have had for a LONG time.  The metal rim tag is from Making Memories.
This card was for my little guy.  Paper is from the Cobalt edition of Project Life and I just added again some washi tape and the metal rimmed tag.
This card was for my husband.  The paper is from the Clementine edition of Project Life and I also used some American Craft thicker letters and a strip of vellum.  I apologize for the glare, I am still trying to get better at taking clear well-lit photos, so bear with me.
So there you have it!  Four Valentine's Day cards all made in one day.

A Funny Moment|| My oldest son comes home from school and we begin the afternoon routine.  Snacks, talking about his day, what homework he has to do, etc.  My son walks up to me and asks "Mom, have you eaten any of the chocolate covered strawberries Dad got you for V-day?"  I tell him, no I had not.  Now, I am thinking to myself here it comes, he is going to ask me for one of the strawberries.  WRONG!!!!  He then proceeds to ask me, "So mom, are you and dad going to feed each other the strawberries tonight in bed?"  What?!?!  I  am trying so HARD not to burst out laughing because my son did not ask me this question in a jokey-joke type of manner, he had the weirdest look on his face.  The kinda look that says I really do not want the mental picture of what I am asking you in my head any longer, so if talking to you about it will rid me of this image then, Let's Talk!!!  I told him that no we would not be doing that tonight but asked him did the possibility of that happening bother him.  Needless to say, I had a very eye opening and entertaining conversation with my son last night!  Will definitely be adding this story to my Project Life.  

Enjoy the weekend!!!!
