    Rusty those bikkies look fab - bet your LO enjoyed helping you and keeping the secret!

    I bought a heart shaped cutter a few weeks ago with the intention to bake cookies for my OH for his hamper but not sure I will now - will either do that or bake a chockie cake in a heart shape!! Unless I run out of time for all these things that is!! Spent today designing his valentine card and tags etc for pot of love - will post photos when they're done!

    Not online, but the Card Factory sell nice hand made cards for 99p each. Or how about asking around? Some friends of friends may well make cards.

    Hi everyone and thank you so much for all your ideas, had thought about doing the voucher thing but they live 100 miles away from me so might not be practical. Does anyone know where I could buy a book with the aniversaries in as I love that idea and im sure it would prove useful. Love the idea of the bubble bath and candles must find out what the plans after the wedding are, dont think romantic evening would work too well with 3 kids at home but will find out. Love the other ideas too and will consider them all, thanks again.

    My anniversary book was from M & S, but that was over 5 years ago. Try ebay or play.com or amazon .

    Hi Ladies, thankyou for the comments, my LO loved helping, I only helped him with the writing, he did all the kisses and the hearts on the other one himself bless him ...
    He has asked if we can make something else for Daddy to show daddy how much mommy loves him :rotfl: ... I might unpack my hamper and let him put it together so he feels like he has done it bless :D
