Valentine Card A blue Valentine! Different, rare and special to be sure. But a blue Valentine by respected and talented Paula Huira, now that is very, very special! Paula's work is often published and we are privileged to have her using Dee's designs! Consider being different this year and giving this blue Valentine to all of your friends. Then enjoy their replies. Or tell them ahead that you'll be sending a "blue" Valentine their way and see what they will be expecting! One club member, Linda Beyer, has a very good idea for its use, related to an Elvis Presley song. We think this card is delightful and the only thing 100% better than seeing it here is holding the actual card in your hand. It's a true head turner! We have a comment section for it here on the Club Posh forum where you can tell about making or sending it. You will see Linda's Elvis idea as the second post of the first page. Have fun and a Happy Valentine's Day!
