This week has just zoomed by so fast. We've been struck down with Rotavirus and RSV. The ultimate double-whammy for winter illness, if you ask me. on Wednesday, I was on Studio 5 sharing 3 fun ways to write a love note. See below for tips and the full segment. Chris and I don't exchange gifts on Valentine's Day. It's usually a simple love letter. We'd like to try and get out, but usually the day is so crazy it doesn't end up happening. We keep it simple to say the least. So how to write a love letter? When it comes to the actual writing, refrain from using "I" first. Is the letter about you? No. Start with "You". Example: I think you're amazing. Really? Does it really matter what I think?  You are an amazing inspiration to all you know. Ahh, that's more like it. I'm no pro at prose, but thinking in that direction has significantly helped me write more interesting letters. On to the crafty fun!

The School Girl

This is a playful note meant for the young or young-at-heart. Fold up an origami heart using your lined paper and seal it with a kiss or some gloriously kitschy stickers. Glitter glue doesn't hurt, either. I used the below video for folding the heart:

The Heart Attack

Perfect snail mail attack of hearts. Rough cut a bunch of hearts and write things you love about that person. Add confetti or glitter for even more fun. But be sure you're sending glitter to the right kind of person. It's kind of like the measles of crafting supplies. Out. Of. Control.

The Romantic Novel

I like to write my man love notes and I like to add a little pizzaz to them! Go for maximum masculine impact with black lined paper and a white pen. Add some silver washi tape for just a little bit of glam. ;)
