Sending Love this Valentine's Day!

I have always been in love with sending Valentine's.

It started back in elementary school, when my teachers would send home a list of all the students in my class. Upon receiving this list, it meant that my family would soon be headed to Walmart to pick out that year's Valentine's cards. I usually alternated between Tweetie Bird and the Disney Princesses, but there were a few others that got thrown in there from time to time. No matter what I decided on, I made sure that everyone in my class got a special card just for them.
Each and every year, I would sit down in the floor, divide the cards out by the different messages printed on them and go down the list of the students in my class. Though the messages were corny and generic, I didn't care. I thought that each one said something to the person who was reading it. I realize now, I was probably the only second grader that was reading that much into their Valentine's cards, but I loved every minute of it.

Not much has changed at 22 years old. I still love Valentine's Day, whether I have a Valentine or not, and I love sending sweet messages to the important people in my life.

Last year was my first time sending actual Valentine's Day cards in the mail, and boy was it fun! I had the best time writing and addressing my 10 beautiful cards from Ashley Brooke Designs.

Last Year's Card:
This year, Ashley has come up with some new Valentine's Day lovelies, and I'm just as smitten with them!

Here are my two favorites:

The Ice Cream Valentine

Seriously, how cute are those?! Hopefully one of them will be mine to send out to some sweet people in just a few weeks! Only 29 days until Valentine's Day!

Are you sending Valentine's this year?

As always, Have a Sweet Day!
