In one of the comments someone asked me to post the company for the Mr. & Mrs. stamp I used. It is by Stampendous. Hope that helps.
The challenge for Speedy's Friends this week is to create a Valentine's Day card. I decided to use this cute little critter from Mark's Finest Papers with his 'necklace' of blooms. Be sure to check out the other fabulous V'day cards at the Speedy's Friends post.
Phew.....I tried to keep my words short as I had so many cards to share. Thanks so very much for taking the time to visit. Your visits and comments are greatly appreciated.
AND...on a personal note......
I AM ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY SICK OF SNOW!!!!
Here in Connecticut we have had snow....snow.....snow.......We actually broke a major record this month. The snowfall amount in January is the most our state has EVER seen in one month since such things were recorded. And....as a shoveler, I will attest to that!!!!!!! Enough already!!!! More snow is predicted for the weekend....so the month is not even over yet......OMGoodness.........AND we are facing a possible BIG one mid week......ack!!!!!

I am in RI and I have had enough, and I hear we are having another major storm Wes.
Fabulous cards, each and every one, beautiful coloring.
Oh Joanne, all your cards are very, very pretty... Your coloring is fabulous... Big hugs...
Oh these are all gorgeous Joanne
These are lovely cards: I especially love your pearl and lace number - GORGEOUS! It's funny you're sick of snow, I'm sick of the heat. It has been hot hot hot hear in Western Australia (well over 100f again today, and we're experiencing cyclonic conditions which mean high humidity, ugh) We always want what we haven't got :-)
Wow!! You sure have been busy!! Each and everyone of your creations are stunning!! That wedding card is incredibly elegant with the cream, your use of dies and the layout!! The heart card just pops out at you!! BEAUTIFUL!
I am with you about being sick of snow. I live in NY and I am SICK of snow too!

All great cards, Joanne, but that first one is simply gorgeous! Very Vintage :)
Looks like all this snow is keeping you indoors cranking out these beauties!!! What stunning work, Joanne!!
Wow...amazing cards and so many too, Joanne!! I would be doing good to produce one a week!
I love all of these, but the baby one with the package is so clever and the pansy is so pretty and dramatic!! I love pansies, they are hardy flowers with such daintiness about them.
You take care of your back with all of that shoveling and try to stay warm indoors. I can not imagine that much snow, friend!!
Where to start? WOW - your shabby chic...beautifully elegant - just stunning! Racoon guy - to cute in the flowers -- SCS TOTALLY AWESOME... That lace bow is killer ....

Your shabby chic is magnificent!!! You amaze me with how you're able to create any style card one can think of......and do it so well each and every time! Your cards are all beautiful!!! I'm here to give you a big AMEN to your thoughts on snow! #$&$@! My DH just cleared off the deck today after the big storm earlier this week, and we too are bracing for another heavy hitter around Wednesday. All this snow is enough already!!!
Dang Joanne, you have been a busy girl!!! All of your cards are beautiful but I really LOVE your Crazy card! The pop of blue ROCKS!!!
I hope your weather gets better! We haven't had as much snow but it has been cold but I think I'd take the cold over the snow!!!
I see the blessing of retirement in all those cards, Joanne! Such fabulous depth in each one, and for me that would me pondering for quite awhile. I absolutely adore the raccoon with that harlequin bg and cool shade of pink.
As for the snow, I feel for you...and just have to tease, I was in my t-shirt this afternoon deheading some of my hydrangeas. Thinking, oh how wonderful to have some some on my face and arms and here it is January. Come West, girl, to the Pacific NW!
OMG, girl...all your creations are sooo gorgeous but I gotta tell ya the first one with all the pearls and lacy edges is over the top!!!!! I am so sorry about all the snow...this has been such a crazy winter!!!
Holy smokes Joanne...you've been the stampin' machine...LOL!!! You need to come and visit me...we had 68 F today...sorry don't mean to rub it in..giggle!!!
Anyway, all of your cards are gorgeous...perfect details as always, but the C4C card made me GASP!!! Absolutely gorgeous GF...love everything about it!!! Hugs ~S~
Wow Joanne, okay all of these cards art stunning works of art!!! Love them!!! I live in California and want to share with you that we have been having a real warm snap here, the way I see it, is that it's heading your way!!! Sending sunshine!!!
Joanne, the top card is absolutely GORGEOUS! Love all the others, too, but the top takes the gorgeous by storm.
I feel for you with the snow stuff!
What more can I add that all of the other fans of yours haven't except to tell you that you are amazing? Amazingly creative, amazingly productive, amazingly artistic in all you design. They are all magnificent cards, but the vintage one really knocked my socks off; it is GORGEOUS, my friend!
Okay, gorgeous cards....but oh.my.freakin'.word how I ADORE that first one. Total gorgeousness!!!!!!
They're all so beautiful, Joanne. I think all this snow is good for one thing...getting to stay home and make beauties like these. The baby card is such a sweetie and they are all the top of the line. Stay warm, if possible!
I, too, long for a tropical paradise somewhere...hot sunshine, sand, beautiful blue skies, and ocean waves. Hang on, summer is coming.
Fabulous cards Joanne, love the shabby one and the bright colors and cute images on the others. Thanks for sharing them!
