    Hi RustyFlange, can i ask where did you get the lottery cards from? I've looked in Asda and Morrisons today and both didn't stock any? Valentines is almost here but no sign of these cards yet! Thanks!

    Hi Ami, I made this one 2 years ago, I haven't found any valentines themed ones this year, sorry I can't be of more help, maybe you could just add a red themed one?

    Oh no, LOL! Nevermind! I will pop to WHSmiths and the local newsagents tomorrow and try my luck, if none than maybe i'll just get the normal ones and hang something valentine-y to it?! I'll work it out! :) Thank you for the swift reply!

    flying Pig Thanks you so much for all your ideas, I have a bee mine valentine card that I have made for my OH so your bee mine mint humbugs are ideal to go with it :T

    Love the ladybug chocolates. Need to put my thinking cap on to make something out of them for my niece's

    Thanks again, some fab ideas on this thread

    Morning all, I made up the iPod treat which you can see here, but I did my own version which was a box with a iTunes voucher inside it! turned out very well apart from me slicing off my finger tip!!

    and then a little bucket I picked up from hobbycraft which I filled with lindt lindor eggs and silver heart dragees, then prettied up with some flowers.
