Valentines for Hospitalized Veterans

I used the handles from a beautiful but beat up Christmas gift bag to make the heart.

This card was made with materials generously donated by Stampin' Up representatives Amy Lindberg and Stephanie Littlefield. Thank you ladies!

I've been busy making valentines for hospitalized veterans for the USO's Miles of Smiles program. Here are photos of a few of my projects. I'm hoping that the love poured into them will bless the veterans even though I have a ways to go in learning valentine making skills. Some of the valentines are cards, as above, and some are more like flyers, using a whole sheet of paper, as below.
