Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What is the best Valentine gift you have ever gotten?

Such a fun card. Love all those sparkly hearts!
ReplyDeleteWe are lucky there are no raccoons here!
ReplyDeleteReally cute cards! I am not a fan of raccoons either, except for their likenesses on paper! I really love that Heart Panel Die you used and the red foil paper! Pretty heart stencil too!
ReplyDeleteA handmade Valentine card from my daughter is the best gift I've gotten!
Both are so cute, love the raccoons and red foiling!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are cute, We have lots of racoon's here. I would have to say my favorite Valentine gift was probably the year my husband, when he was still my boyfriend got me a sweetheart ring and roses.
ReplyDeleteA sweet image for our theme, love the card design. Thanks for joining us at TPS, good luck with the challenge. hugs Shirleyxxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling card! I love all the red foil and sparkle and of course, that cute little raccoon. Thanks for linking up to the DRU "Hearts" challenge. Best of luck to you!
ReplyDeleteAfter my husband retired, he would
ReplyDeletesneak out early in the morning and
get me flowers (never got those
when he was working). Then he'd
take me out for breakfast.
Racci is cute - fun cards.
thanks for sharing

These are both adorable! I love critters! As for favourite Valentine gift, I have received so many over the years, I can't remember anything specific, except my very first one when I was 16 - red and white carnations in a heart-shaped vase, will always remember that one because it was my first one, and my first boyfriend.
ReplyDeleteThese raccoons are so cute. the real ones are too destructive. Best Valentine's present was the birth of my first grandchild.
ReplyDeleteAdorable raccoon... lovely valentine's card.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining us at the paper shelter challenge

Who knew racoons could be so cute, that not me until I saw your cards!!
ReplyDeleteYour raccoon cards are very sweet and love all the red elements. Best gift was flowers and chocolates. I raised a baby raccoon and he thought I was his mom. He followed me everywhere.
