valentine traditions


When my sons were little I would come to their schools and present a workshop on Valentines. I made this book about the history of the date, the saint, and the symbolism. Then we would break out the craft supplies and the kids would always surpass my greatest expectations. I loved mixing media together. The kids are fearless in their combinations... this Love/Live card is sewn paper, 7.5 x 6.5 inches
It's all we can, should, do, really. We live. We should love. It helps solve the big question. By living and loving our existence makes sense. Things fit together. Miracles happen. This card is a reminder because I often forget... (isn't that shameful?)
