A Million Times a Million (Valentine's Day) Digital Scrapbooking Kit Freebie

New to digital scrapbooking? Never downloaded a digital kit before? What in the world are .rar files anyway? Get your answers here: How to Unzip Files So You Can Digi Scrap.


Woah. Valentine's Day sneaked up on me. Who knew love could be so devious? I am not a good wife when it comes to Valentine's Day. Usually, David spoils me rotten (like it's my birthday or something), while I feel bad that I didn't put as much time and effort into it.

But not this year. This year I am prepared. No just tucking a sweet letter into an envelope and letting David pick out his own presents. This year, I have designed a kit specifically to make him a card with it. I think it can be a bit hard to buy your husband a Valentine's Day card, unless you go with a funny one; but then, I don't have all that much experience buying them (when I've given a card in the past, it was usually one I made and already had on hand). Anyway, I like this kit because it's masculine and bold, but still fits in with the whole vibe of Valentine's Day.

There is a printable in the kit too, which looks just like my card up there. You can print it out, trim it down and slap it on a card and call it done. A tip I would give is find an envelope first, then print it the right size for the envelope. I can't tell you how many times I've had a card and not a single envelope to fit it.

We had such a wonderful Valentine's Day!

David does the best things to make it special. He's so amazing that way. It was a nice break, since I've been sick and Aubriana has been sick (still is, poor thing). We cooked a really nice dinner together, then went ice skating. I can't even remember the last time I went ice skating. It was so nice. It was college night, so it started at 8:00 and went to 11:00 with no one under 16. The first time around the rink, I was hugging the side and unsteady, but I soon caught the hang of it again. David was so cute, because for once, he's not as good as me at something. He also kept getting bum skates and returning them, once he even broke a shoelace. Once he got a good pair of skates though, he improved rapidly. It was such a fun date, although a bit strange. It kinda made me feel old to be around all those college kids. I told David I bet I was the only girl there with four kids. ;)

He also spoiled me as usual with the gifts. He got me two gift certificates to See's, the DVD of My Fair Lady (!), some beads and two things of lotion from Bath and Body works. He got some handguns and a card.
