I got lovely cards from cicero and melodyharmonius. My carpet is now sprinkled with heart-shaped pink and red sequins :). Thank you!

Today’s mail brought Valentines from **Surly Chick** and **Anaglyph**. Loved the hamsters and all the hearts and the poem.

Thanks!

I’m afraid that I’ll be one of those who extends the Valentine season… I just mailed mine today and while I was at the post office I received two lovely cards from \*\*faithfool \*\*and **Anaglyph**. Thank you! (And thank you for making me feel guilty about my lack of creativity 😛 )

I’m sure they’ll start pouring in soon. You have to think of it as Valentine’s Season, not just Valentine’s Day. 🙂

Wow - mine should be getting there soon - unless they are scanning it for terrorist documentation . . .

Sauron mailed mine for me yesterday morning so they will probably be a day or two late.

I’ve loved the cards I’ve gotten so far. So creative and pretty! 🙂

Mine went out on Tuesday, but goodness only knows how long they will take to get delivered with all the snow we’ve had around here.

A trip to our mailbox today brought a wonderous assortment of valentines, all quite beautiful! Thank you so much!! I think today was our first mail delivery in a week too, so it was great to see the pretty cards. My valentines finally went out today, thanks to my daughter who took them to the post office. Our apologies at being so late, but the double whammy snowstorms conspired against us this year! They are on the way, and I had several valentines winging their way across the oceans, which means they’ll be even later. I hope you’ll all appreciate them still. It was fun making them while we were cooped up! LOL

Happy Valentines day all. 🙂

My greetings to Anaglyph.

Today I received the first ever Valentines greeting card I ever got through the mail.

Thank you.

Today is Valentine Lottery Day chez GT. I received greetings from: **King Bobo** , **Cicero** , **Always Brings Pie** , **Purple Haze** , **Pandora** , and **Aries28**. Very cool!

Lovely family pic, **Aries**. Have to say that **Sauron** doesn’t look very frightening IRL. 😃

I love seeing each personality reflected in what they’ve sent. Thanks everyone!

I also got one today from **Aries** and **gardentraveler**. I’ll second that Aries’ family is lovely and that gt made my inner 10 year old squeel. Thank you both!
