Hi Everyone, I have made a Valentine card for hubby, we don't usually send each other one, but as everyone is making them I just fall in and send him one anyway. He tells me I have Valentines Day every day. hahaha. We have been married 55 years in June, so in a way he's right, aw! Bless him, I've been very lucky.
We have both had our vaccinations now, him last week and me this Wednesday the third. Neither with any side effects. A funny story (I think) When I went for my jab, I had to walk down a corridor, there was a female army sergeant in uniform waving at me, so as I walked I put my arm in the air and gave her a huge wave, when I got to her, she said, "I waved to you in case you didn't see me, as I'm camouflaged". Yep! she was in camouflage uniform! I laughed myself silly, I have told this story to a few people they didn't think it funny, I suppose you had to be there, but it was just as well I had a mask on or people may have thought I was mad giggling to myself.
Anyhow here is my card. I embossed an image I cut in Silhouette a while ago, then while the EF was attached I went over it with a DI. I then cut a heart from the coloured card with a freebie die, then another shape heart from a punch, a what? yep a punch! the little hearts were also cut from a punch. I stamped the hearts, layered the embossed heart layer onto black card, 3D'd all the hearts. Simple, but I think he'll like it. He doesn't "do" computers so I know he won't see it until he has it.

Such a pretty Valentine with the dual hearts! I thought we were doing well with 52 years together, but you have us beat - congrats on 55 years! We are both blessed in many ways. I'm sure your hubby will enjoy this card.
A super card Faith, I'm sure hubby will love it.
I'm so pleased that you and your husband have had your vaccinations and I did laugh at your story.

You are a lovely couple Faith! There's nothing wrong with spreading the love :) Your story made me chuckle! Vicky x
Me again! I forgot to say how much I like your card! I love the inked embossing in the background and the stamped heart. What a lovely sentiment too - he'd have to have a heart of stone not to melt at that! Vicky x
Your card is really fabulous, Faith! Wonderful embossing and texture! I have to tell you that I thought your story was hilarious! I'm still chuckling! :o)
A beautiful Valentine for your husband! Wonderful pretty hearts and lovely embossed background! Hehehe...a funny story on your way to get your shot! Happy to hear that you both got them and didn’t have any reactions!
I got my first vaccine does on the 5th Faith and I'm happy to report I didn't have any side effects either! Now I can't wait to get the second dose. I will be happy when they can get the doses out to the whole world so we can get back to some kind of normalcy. Your card is perfect for hubby!!! It shows your appreciation of him and I love it! 55 years, you are one lucky gal my friend! I wish to have had that long with Dwayne, but was not meant to be for me. Such as life. I really do think this is a perfect valentine! Hugs, Brenda
A sweet card for your sweetheart! And your story is definitely very funny!

Thank you for the funny 'camouflaged' story and I am so glad you have both had your vaccinations x. Such a fabulous and romantic card for DH and yes you both are blessed Faith x.
LOL, I laughed at your story! My hubs is an Army vet and we are always laughing about 'not seeing' anything in camo! Cute story! And I love your card - sounds like you are very blessed with a sweet hubby! 55 years is amazing!
Brilliant card Faith. Hubby will love it! Congratulations on 55 years! What a fun camo. story - great that folk still have a bit of a sense of humor!
This is a wonderful card, Faith! I love the stacked hearts and the pretty background! I am sure your spouse will appreciate this!
We don't celebrate Valentine's Day, but I usually make cards for challenges. The Hubster always asks, "Is the card that you are not making to not give to me on the holiday that we do not celebrate?"
We are three years behind you guys. August of this year will mark 52 years!
Hugz,

Don’t know how I missed this post but I did. Great card, hubby and I don’t do Valentine’s card either but I have done some for my store. Love your vaccination story, pleased you didn’t get any side effects either xx
I think that is a funny story about the camouflaged Sergeant. Congratulations on being married 55 years. Lovely valentine card, too.
A great card for your hubby. mine will be last minute as usual, lol. Good that you have had your vaccinations, and the story made me smile.
Such a sweet card for your hubby! Glad you've both been vaccinated. Hubby is this week & hopefully I'll get an appt next week. Light at the end of the tunnel!
