Such nice stuff, but all so sweet and sincere. There should be an anti-valentines round up of the best fun designs in sarcasm and bitterness for the rest of us!

I totally just went to etsy and bought a valentines day card for husband I was so inspired - and heck, I got some personalized stationery while I was there too. Man oh man is etsy a dangerous place for me!

I’m a sucker for owls. My grandmother had an owl collection that she passed on to me and ever since I’m always on the lookout. It’s been great that owls are so popular lately. Love it!

It’s actually “Rock Scissor Paper.” Easy to transpose the words.
