Fly Me to the Moon

Hey gals!

It's just about here ~ the sweetest holiday of them all!

I really love Valentines day...

not that it has always been memorable or romantic

or any of those other ideal dreamy things

I was never the girl who got the pink slip at school

you know the slip that meant someone special sent you flowers!

Oh man did I want that pink slip!

but really I just love walking into the store and sing my favorite color

PINK everywhere ~ and cutie pie teddy bears saying I love you

Yeah I really just love the sappy sweet corny goodness that is

Valentine's Day!

Gosh geez how time flies by ~

Do you remember last year when I hosted

Lollishops grand opening party

All Dolled Up!?

That was fun - I should really do something like that again :)

I just finished and listed a new kit!

It's my first all "paper" kit

I just LOVE my Double Wedding Ring Quilt

so naturally it was a perfect item for a digi kit

Isn't this paper-cut Valentines just to die for?

Every time I come across it I can't help but sing

Fly Me to the Moon in my head

Valentine's is so funny when your young

and you get all wrapped up into "does he like me?"

the shy awkwardness and the high high hopes

oh what silliness - how we thought we were in love

when really we didn't know what love was at all

Here is my Valentine!

My wonderful PERFECT love!

We've had some really great valentines

and then sometimes life gets in the way

and you're happy

to just get a card and a morning kiss

a.k.a. this year

Speaking of Cards ~

Gnome-N-Birdy V-day posts will be devoted to crafting

and scrapbooking with vintage v-day cards

I'm really excited to showcase come of my own work

and share some great inspiration from Diane of Saturday Finds

+ there will be a chance to win some really lovely treats!

Come check it out Valentines Day or into the start of next week

if your are off romancing the day away ~
