Please send us a valentine that you love!

[Alyson Kuhn] Felt & Wire is putting up a wall of love to showcase readers’ favorite valentines. It’s not a contest, it’s a love fest, and you’re invited to participate. Here’s how it will work.

We want to see — and share — a valentine or love note or heart art that delights you. It can be a card that you designed, or printed, or bought, or received. You do NOT have to tell us why you love it, though you can. Just mail it to us in an envelope (only one card per envelope, but no limit on the number of envelopes!). Allyson Van Houten at Mohawk will photograph each card and post it on Facebook. She will then place it on the wall of love (a.k.a. Big, Beautiful Bulletin Board) at Mohawk and provide photo updates on Facebook as well.

You can comment on the valentines posted to Felt & Wire’s Show us the Love album. On February 14, the valentine that has received the most comments … will earn $100 worth of “shop love” for its submitter: a $100 gift card to spend at Felt & Wire Shop. The week after Valentine’s Day, we will feature the winning valentine on Felt & Wire.

Address your envelope(s) to Felt & Wire; c/o Mohawk Fine Papers; 465 Saratoga Street; Cohoes, New York 12047. Note: Entries will not be returned; valentines will be sent to our troops overseas.

Shown above: Valentine designed by Marian Bantjes for Valentine’s Day 2010. Laser die-cut from a Christmas card.

The Beautiful Angle duo makes 3 good points

TEDx Tacoma last week featured a presentation by Felt & Wire friends Lance Kagey and Tom Llewellyn. Their title is a little long, but their talk is short, and we liked it so much we’ve watched it twice. Check out “Guerrilla Messaging: A Story of Money, Power and Desire.”
