One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself,
“What if I had never seen this before?
What if I knew I would never see it again?”
— Rachel Carson
We’ve hit that point where the snow is mostly chips of ice, dirty and brown (or yellow).
But like most things, you can easily find something to love, to make beautiful… if you dig deep enough.

I’m considering printing this snowheart photo out for Cass to give out as homemade Valentines for her classmates… what do you think of the caption “Your smile makes my heart melt?” Jeff says it’s creepy.
Another option is this photo— you’ve seen it before:
We’d cut slits above and below the hand and insert a lollipop, as (crudely) illustrated. “I’m a sucker for your friendship?” Yay or nay?
I just don’t do store-bought cards. I know, you’re shocked.
Votes, please!

I ♥ the ♥ one! Tagline is great, too!
The lollipop one is um … interesting.
Thanks for your vote, Beverly 🙂
But jeff makes my heart melt so how is that creepy?
I’ll pass that on, B, but not sure it helps our argument
Why not both cards? I love the first one, it looks like something I would want to buy at a card store.Why not use that for family members. Use the other with classmates.
Thank you for adding your post to our Valentine’s Day linkup and our button to your post.

Those are such sweet ideas for Valentines! I really like the “Your smile makes my heart melt idea”–not creepy at all! 🙂 It’s so much more special to get a unique Valentine instead of the mass-produced ones everyone else hands out. Not that there’s anything *wrong* with those, but, well, you know. 🙂
I linked up with the Valentine’s Day Party too, so I just wanted to stop by and say hello!
