Happy Valentine's!

Hi everyone! Thank you very much for visiting my blog today.

Time flies and in two days will be Valentine's Day. There are many versions of this celebration, but the best known says that this day is celebrated in the name of love, because a Christian pope, named Valentine, around 270AD, was beheaded as punishment for aiding and married to Christians. Terrible story to commemorate a day dedicated to love...

I hope everyone can enjoy this February 14th (and every day) with your loved ones.

Today I made this card with the Mojo Monday Sketch and the topic of St. Valentine's. I did the drawing for the occasion. I also made the flower by using different punch papers. Hope you like it!
