One of the first things that comes to mind when I think of Valentine’s day is the My Funny Valentine Lyrics - here they are along with a cute flower you can make from the Sunday “funnies” to give to that special someone who always makes you smile!  (See more Funny Valentine Cards HERE)

My funny valentine, Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable, Unphotographable
Yet you’re my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than greek, Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak, Are you smart?

But don’t change a hair for me, Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay, Each day is valentines day

Is your figure less than greek, Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak, Are you smart?

But don’t you change one hair for me, Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay, Each day is valentines day

My Funny Valentine Flower Craft
.

Start by pulling out a couple sheets of the Sunday comics. Stack 4or 5 on top of one another and using a coffee filter or small bowl – trace a circle around them.  Cut it out.

Next, you’ll want to fold each circle in half three or four times until it resembles a triangle.  To make them look more like petals, cut a curve around the wide end.  Mix it up and cut an extra dip into one or a double scallop so the end result will be a little more frilly.  Once they’re all snipped, unfold each one and stack your petals onto one another and pinch the pointed end together tightly.   Using a bread tie, secure the ends.  Finally, fluff out the petals and secure it with a clothespin to a sweet note to your own “funny Valentine”
