Valentines: Once Upon A Time Style

Well I finally got around to making up some Valentine's Day cards as promised.  I wasn't too sure I was going to be able to since I've been in a bit of a creative slump the last few days.  I was concerned that I had made a promise as empty as Regina's heart.  But fear not!  The Great Xul has pulled it together enough to at least half-ass it!  I hope someone enjoys these.  I myself am going to do Valentine's Day in the Evil Regal style--alone and resentful and maybe try to destroy someone's happiness.  ;P  'Cuz as Regina says, "Not having someone, that's the worst curse imaginable."




***Updated***

Seems I didn't have to choose.  Looky!  LOL

I like them. I wonder who Regina's mother's valentine would be.

Haven't seen those two in the middle yet.

as Regina says, "Not having someone, that's the worst curse imaginable."

She should really move on with her life. That is, after serving a sentence for murder.

I've had a bit of a rough morning. I've had a prostate exam (no problem detected by the doc) and I've had some blood taken. I'll get the results in a week or so. I had gone to the doc about 2 weeks ago because I suspected I had a urinary tract infection. As it turned out that's not the case but the doc wanted to do a little more research to be sure. Symptoms have disappeared now mostly.

And how was your Valentine morning?

Haven't seen those two in the middle yet. Well, you've seen one of them! When you get caught up, you'll know why these cards are so hilarious to me.

after serving a sentence for murder. Along with the "good guys" and half the town for other high crimes and misdemeanors. ;)

I've had a prostate exam Oh, Arekino...that's not the way to celebrate Valentine's. And you didn't even get dinner first...(sorry, couldn't help myself)

At least you are feeling better now and there's nothing wrong?

And how was your Valentine morning? A wonderful slumber was destroyed by the old woman. I figured it would be my happiness being destroyed today. I was right. :(

Probably for the best...

Symptoms have resided. I'm awaiting the results of the blood test. They're testing for some kind of hormone apparently.

A wonderful slumber was destroyed by the old woman.

Too bad. Question: if you could pick any character from OUAT as your Valentine, who would you pick?

I'm sorry, but having that done on Valentine's is like a Seinfeld episode. ;P

Question: if you could pick any character from OUAT as your Valentine, who would you pick? Hmm...that's a tough one. The only 2 guys who I find physically attractive on that show are Jefferson/Mad Hatter and Hook. Except Jefferson is...well, nuts and angry...and Hook is sleazy.

Now you know that Regina is my girl(but not in a gay way) and she could definitely use a Valentine. So Regina it is. My Valentine's gift would be my fabulous advice cuz giiiirrrrrlllll! You're doin' it all wrong!

I think the test is for inflammation.

is like a Seinfeld episode. ;P

Welcome to my life :P

Regina is my girl

Good. Regina desperately needs a good friend.

I think the test is for inflammation. If you have inflammation you should take some ginger. It's good for that.

BTW Arekino, check your email for your Valentine. :)

I just spent some time giving special Valentine's TLC to my poor neglected car. It got the spa treatment. Damn that car has a lot of shit to polish and clean! That's what I get for buying a sexy/curvy car. ;P

Ah, Thank you! And yes, there is some comfort in that ;)

I really like the new "Mad" Card BTW. Does the hatter come back later in the series?

That's what I get for buying a sexy/curvy car. ;

I do hear the sexy ones are usually the high maintenance types ;P

Ah, Thank you! You're welcome! I still can't get over the ordeal you had to go through yesterday. I wish I could've been there to give you some proper activities to make up for that.

I really like the new "Mad" Card BTW. I didn't make it. It was on my FB from the OUAT fan page. Hence the joke about me not having to choose. If I had a good photo shopping program I could make ones like that. As it is, I've just been getting creative with the basic programs that I have.

Does the hatter come back later in the series? Yes! In a few eps of season 2. Although I'd like to see more of him. Maybe they'll have him back for season 3.

I do hear the sexy ones are usually the high maintenance types ;P I know my car's appearance is high maintenance. I'm not very high maintenance, though. ;P

I'm sure it would have been nice to have you around. :)

It wasn't too awful. I managed to deal with it on my own.

I'm not very high maintenance, though. ;P

Well, there are exceptions to the rule. :) You deserve more attention than you're getting now, I think.

Oh, and I think your cards are on par with the Mad Hatter one BTW.

I'm sure it would have been nice to have you around. :) I would have made you a nice dinner--my specialty--honey teriyaki marinated skirt steak(grilled) with garlic mashed red potatoes and some nice steamed asparagus or haricot verts and a yummy sherry/strawberry trifle for dessert. :) Now I've made myself very hungry.

You deserve more attention than you're getting now, I think. You are correct, sir!

your cards are on par They would be exceptional if I had Photoshop. Right now I'm just ganking pix from the web and adding text. The ancient Lexmark photo editor program I have is super easy to use but limited. I have an old Microsoft program from 2001 that I made the 'cougars' card with. It gives me more options on certain 'projects' but I'm still limited according to the template. I need to be able to cut and paste and add effects.
