I always love to join Debbiedoo's Copy Cat Challenge but, I can't always find something to copy that I have the supplies for. But, this month I had the three items in this full page photo taken from Romantic Homes February 2013 issue.
The article was on Sailor's Valentines. Such a romantic gesture for a sailor at sea to craft a heart shaped box out of seashells for his sweetheart. I think I could create another post on sea themed valentines. I'll see what I can come up with.

What a great idea for a valentine, Sherry, and I think yours turned out better than the original one.

Sherry, I'm going to look through my past issues to see if I have this one. I've always been fascinated with these sailor's valentines. The Whaling Museum on Nantucket has a wonderful collection of these little beauties.
I went back to write down the date, and I see this is the current issue. Will be picking one up tomorrow. '-)
Awesome heart shell, Sherry! :-)
Sherry, your shell heart is really sweet. I like it better than in the magazine. Wonderful job, and thnaks for sharing at my HOME. Hope you're having a nice weekend.
Blessings,
