Hi friends, it's that time of year when I start to make Valentines.
I make collage Valentines by cutting things out of catalogs. I can send you the original by snail mail, or I can email you a scan (they don't always come out perfectly!)
It helps if I get a few categories from you, so please comment with the following:
1 - preferred color or color scheme
2 - favorite animals or mythical creatures
3 - artistic period or school that calls to you (classical, abstract, tribal, romantic, cottage, eclectic?)
4 - favorite myth, fairy tale, or legend
5 - any other thing or theme you like in a valentine?
The Valentines are not usually fannish in nature since I'm not about to cut up my Doctor Who or Supernatural magazines! But I have a few Think Geek catalogs lying around with some fannish things I could add in (tiny Daleks, Tardises, sonics, that sort of thing....)

Lately I've been obsessed with Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his roses. Which, if you check into these things, are the same style as the roses in Hello!Kitty coloring books. ;)
Beyond that, I like how you work, so do what you want.
