The first two cards I made for a man at church that asked me to make a card that he could give his wife for Valentine’s Day. He said she likes bright colors, daisy’s and Calla-Lilly. I didn’t get the Calla-Lilly card done but I have an ideal that will do later…maybe for Mother’s Day. I made this two so he could pick which one he likes best. On the top inside of the cards I put this verse in a heart shape (he asked for this verse)
Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love,
all the days of this meaningless life
that God has given you under the sun—
all your meaningless days.
For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome
labor under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 9:9
Then on the inside bottom it says “Happy Valentine’s Day!”
I hope he likes at least one of them!
^^^This is my husbands and friends favorite of the two.

NOW JUST FOR FUN….
This card was just for fun. I wanted to play at Heart Song Inspiration so I was super happy when they gave away the rose heart image for FREE! I wasn’t sure I would get to play since I thought I was done making Valentine cards. But as I kept look at the image I decided the rose would look good in layers and I had not done that before so off I went to create. I love how it came out. I decided to make a Wedding Card since it is always good to have them around.
