One of my favorite craft projects is making Valentine's Day cards. I started this tradition a while ago, sending a few valentines out and now, my list has grown to ~60 people! I've made fun ones over the years and here they are: 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015 (I made one design for my coworkers and a different one for my friends and family), 2014, 2013, 2012. I know have a fun prop (Logan!) to make these cards and this year was no exception. I took a picture of Logan playing at the park with his hands in the air and then had them printed at Costco. I then took a craft knife and cut a slit in one of his hands and slid a heart shape lollipop into the slit. I had a bunch of printed envelopes leftover from our Christmas cards that already had the addresses printed and was determined to use them; however, that presented a challenge for sealing the envelope. I had to sweet talk the Post Office lady and ask her to had stamp the cards so they wouldn't get rejected by the postage machine. In the end, it was worth the effort and I love how they came out :)
