Valentine's Day cards 2017

-
I love love love Valentine's Day cards. But I don't love mushy sappy Valentine's Day cards.
That's just wrong. A Valentine's Day card should make you chuckle, giggle, or at least make your mouth grin on one side. And if you still want something sentimental you should write it yourself inside one of my funny cards. Right?

These cards are available on my etsy shop with lots more, take a look around!



wait for it . . .








You could delivery this to your sweetheart with a plate of sticky buns, cinnamon buns or just with your buns. 

My sister and I had a heated discussion about this card. I made a boy version to give my husband. But do you give your husband the boy or girl card? I was thinking you would give a man the boy card because he is the baker, but my sister thinks you would give your husband the girl card because you are giving it to him. As you can tell we have very intellectual conversations, so just give either one. 



Okay, I lied, this one is a little mushy, but I love it. Doesn't it make you want to sigh  . . . awww . .

I love cheeseburgers, and I especially am proud of that cute little cheese burger I drew. It's making me a little hungry.

wait for it . . .







If I had to pick a favorite, this would be it. It's a little stalkerish but who doesn't love a stalker!

wait for it . . .

These last two are a little more simple, nothing inside, perfect place to write that sentimental stuff.
I love my little surfer dude


And this dudett is pretty cute too. 


My cards are usually $3.00, but I am doing a Valentine's Day special, only $1 a card. Why? Because I just want everyone to have one!! I wish the shipping was free, but darn post office wouldn't comprise with me. So enter LOVECARD when checking out and get $2.00 off each card. If you live close by me just tell me the card you would like and I will hand deliver it (and just skip the post office).

    I think they are all cute, and yes, you can make them for the guys, too. Guys appreciate when they get compliments on their buns just like the ladies. I would make one for each gender and see what happens, you might be surprised to find out that the one you didn't want to make becomes your bestselling piece.

*** Thanks everyone for your support and for finding me! This post has become my most popular, and most viewed. I updated these puppets so they download easier and with better quality. Also I added some mermaids & space robots puppets. Click here for updated puppets. 
Merry Christmas friends & family!  I drew the following paper puppets for my sister-in-law for Christmas. She is going to laminate them before taping to popsicle sticks so they last a little longer. 
I hope you enjoy these free printables. (Click on image and save to your computer. Make sure to scale to correct size before printing).




And/or you can print them off with no color and have your kids color them. (I'm totally an ink hog, and am very choosy in what I print in color, so I try offer everything in color and black & white). 


Because I have no skills with a sewing machine my mom is helping me make this puppet theater. By helping, I mean I sit next to her and talk her leg off while she sews.

Loss and small moments of peace and hope

I wanted to share something personal today. 

This weekend was my due date for our baby girl. Sadly several months ago I had a miscarriage and lost this sweet baby. This was my 3rd miscarriage in 3 years. For some reason, that doctors and many tests don't know, I can no longer carry a baby past my 2nd trimester. At my 12 week appointment everything looks great, and then at some point in my 2nd trimester the baby stops growing and in a very quiet room the ultrasound technician will become very quiet as she searches for a heartbeat and I know just by her face that we lost our baby. Three times this has happened and each time it is heartbreaking and devastating. Time stands still in that very small room as all our hopes, dreams and plans are instantly lost. It's a loss that I still can't put into words. A cloud of sadness that has never left me and sits on my shoulder at all times.

Over the past 7 years I have drawn probably a dozen or more baby announcements. It's one of m…

Ugly Thoughts

I have a 9 year old daughter * gasp * can that be? She is the sweetest thing around. I adore her. She starts 4th grade this year. She'll learn about Idaho history - the Oregon trail, Lewis & Clark and awesome Sacajawea who saved their tails a few times. And of course our famous potatoes, can't forget those Idaho potatoes. But I digress.
4th grade is awesome. But it's also where she will slowly start to leave her childhood. I hope she always knows she is hilarious, talented and beautiful. How do I teach her this as she grows? How do I teach her to always see the beauty in herself and others?
I found this quote from one of Roald Dahl's books, I especially love the drawings. I'm going to hang this in the bathroom, so when my 9 year old gets ready for the day she remembers to also prepare her mind for the day. I need a copy in my bathroom too. 


This is hands down my favorite picture of my daughter- around the age of 5. Look at that beautiful confidence shining through…
