This will be my first Valentine's Day with my boyfriend so will be looking for ideas to impress him.  My home baking went down well at Christmas so will try again for this 🙂🙂🙂

Well   @smiler48    The way to a mans heart is through his stomach....

So the card ... 

you can spend a small fortune in a shop or upcycle some bits and pieces you have at home 

all you need is some coloured paper ... probably red or pink and some card of a suitable shape to fold in half for the base. 

Cut out a whole lot of hearts and see what looks good 

Did you know if you cut open a tomato purée tube and wash it you get a lovely gold metal

Now you just need to arrange them nicely on your ‘card’ 

heres some ideas

get a gold or red pen and write ‘I love you’  as well if you like

@richfc
Of course
That’s a shame that you share a birthday with valentines ... although on the plus side I guess you always get a card or several 😂

Being a florist I spend a lot of time doing this on Valentines day @kath72 ❤️
