The Artful Valentine
I've been thinking about a Valentine for my special someone-s. Let me just say, I'm not big on the readily-available-mass-produced-Valentine. Although well intentioned, I find they don't often pack the punch I am looking for. I guess I look at gifts like these as expressions of ourselves, which cannot easily be purchased.
With that said, take a peek at these lovely creations found at little paper planes. I find them to be expressive and special gestures of affection! Let's face it, we don't always have the time or wherewithal to hand make our gifts, or perhaps we need a fresh perspective or idea, like these gems offer. I would be proud to extend one of these to my most special sweetheart!

My boys are of the age they exchange Valentines with classmates at school. They always deliver handmade gifts. It takes a lot of time, but they have come to understand and enjoy the process of giving a gift of themselves. These images will no doubt provide inspiration as they embark on their projects this weekend.
Wishing you an Artful Valentines Day!
