I just loved some of the messages we got asked to put on the cards...one was 'love from 'one-eye' wink wink' and another was 'To my little fluffybunnikins'

Last year I was given a poem, which of course would not fit on a normal florist card so I had to make a card big enough................ I love poetry, but only by people who know how to write it! His Valentine must have thought the same thing as he didn't send her flowers this year.
