[Aminal]

Valentines Day is coming and this board's color is perfect for it. I'm going to find or make Betty Boop Valentines to give away this year. Betty always did look good in hearts :)

[bupadup]

i think just any picture of Betty in a heart or red dress can pass off as a valentine picture:)

[Aminal]

Not that I know of. I was thinking of taking betty Boop pics ( even some of these avatars would look good. Printing them out then making up my cards or hearts and copying them onto them or using the pics as fronts of the vcards and making up my own. there is a whole world of possibilities. Hey maybe I do know a teeny weeny bit about crafts after all ( refer to my post in polls what contest next lol :)

that's true but I think I'd like my valentines to be a bit more adventuresome and unique :)

[bupadup]

see there you go!!........ for my b-day last year my mom made me a surprise party and for bags shegot pics of her pasted them on paper bags and gave them to the kids!!:D

who needs to buy them when they come 20 in a pack this way you can make as many as you need!!:D :D

[Aminal]

yep, and because you or someone does something like that it's better than storebought because it's personal. from the heart, it has a lot more meaning. anyone can go out and buy something but if you buy something and use it to make something or just make something yourself it carries a lot more heart.

[bupadup]

i agree..... i always say that i prefer things form the heart than from the store:D :D

its always better to recieve those types of things(in my opinion):D

Hey Bupadup that was a great idea your mom had for your b-day!! that's pretty unique.

Something else I like to do for my mom and other family members is give them paper hearts with IOU's on it... like if they need me to help them do something, they just slip me one of the IOU requests.. things like making dinner or helping with housework. Works great!!!

[BBooper]

lol!! i think i'd be handing out IOU's all over the place! :P

It's always worked for me... especially when I was younger and didn't have a way to go shopping or was too busy with school. I'd make up the IOU hearts and give them to my mom and my sis and offer to do more chores...... it really can be fun.. sometimes they were just fun ones too... for example a HUG IOU.... and you'd be surprised how many times my mom or sis handed me a hug IOU cause they just needed a hug once in a while... pretty cool idea don't you think?

[10eke]

Hmn... Very cool idea!!! Might give my bf that with his ps2!

[Bikerbettyboop]

Hmmm 10eke.... made me wonder what your IOU's would say... he hehe.... giving them to your husband or boyfriend can be a lot more romantic then the ones you'd give to your mom or sister or friends.. ha ha....

When I make Don's lunch to take to work with him, I tuck notes inside and always try to say something good or make a date with him .. if I don't put the note in, he lets me know that he missed it that day. He keeps all the notes and cards and letters that I've written to him from day one... I have done the same with his stuff too.

[10eke]

My boyfriend has to go to hospital for examination at the end of march. I hope it's nothing too serious... I would make him IOU notes for hugs in bad times I guess...

[Bikerbettyboop]

Oh my 10eke... I certainly hope and pray that it is nothing serious too. Please keep us posted and yes I think notes would be really helpful for when he's in the hospital. Will he be there long?

My dad was in the hospital once and I made him a hospital apron... don't laugh.. it worked great... I took an apron and filled the pockets with disposable razor, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc... so that when he hobbled to the shower he didn't have to worry about dropping his stuff... he just slipped the apron over his head and hobbled on his way. He was hospitalized for several weeks recovering from a bad auto accident.

I already sent my hubby A valetine carepackage A few week's ago with one of my shirts just A little reminder until he get's home. I also plan on sending him A couple Valentine ecards, I just hope to either chat with him either instant message or phone.:D

[Bikerbettyboop]

Jenny I hope you get to visit with your hubby tomorrow too! Best wishes and Happy Valentine's Day to both of you.

[BBooper]

awww! that sound's like a great gift to send him!! it's like the boot's advert that was on over here at chirstmas. a salior's gf sent him some of her pefume and he sprays it on his pillow! bless!!! Hope you hear from him Jenny! :) and best wishes to the both of you!

Well that sounded like it was a lot of fun!!

[Aminal]

I enjoyed Valentines Day. I got my 2 sweethearts ( my wife and 15year old daughter) a dozen roses ( deep red) and made them each 1 lb of Chocolate covered strawberries. My youngest daughter I got a Valentine Barbie, A yellow,red white and pink rose and a lb of regular strawberries. I also got my teenager a little beenie baby-I get her one every year--(each year on a different holiday.) They were all overjoyed and had a blast. I also made dinner of Steak, baked potatoes, corn and brocolli. It made a nice finish to a nice day :)

[BBooper]
