A 3D VALENTINE

Give your Valentine a special greeting with a homemade 3D Valentine's Day card.

.
WHAT YOU NEED:
Blank card from Michael's (or other craft store) Value Pack
Various colored cardstock or construction paper
Various patterned paper or use plain paper to color on and make your own patterns
Foam Board or a thick corrugated cardboard from a box
Scissors, glitter, crayons, markers, glue
.
WHAT TO DO:
Take a piece of cardstock or construction paper and cut it to be a bit smaller than the size of the blank card cover. Glue it on the card. Take some patterned paper that you like (I used the Love paper) or that you colored and glue it to the previous level. Take some other colored cardstock and cut out various shapes or patterns, each getting smaller as to create the 3D effect. (Optionally, you can use a Cricut or a design punch to make different shapes). Cut out small pieces of the foam board or cardboard and glue one on the cover. Place your largest shape on that. Glue another piece of the foam board or cardboard and place the second largest. Repeat until all your shapes are used. Open up the card and print your Valentines wish.

THE TALL BIC LIGHTER

Ole and Sven were fishing on the Michigan opener when Sven pulled out a cigar. Finding he had no matches, he asked Ole for a light. 'Ya, shure, I tink I haff a lighter,' he replied, and then reaching into his tackle box, he pulled out a Bic lighter 10 inches long. 'Yiminy Cricket!' exclaimed Sven, taking the huge Bic Lighter in his hands. 'Vere dit yew git dat monster??' 'Vell,' replied Ole, 'I got it from my Genie.' 'You haff a Genie?' Sven asked. 'Ya, shure. It's right here in my tackle box,' says Ole. 'Could I see him?' Ole opens his tackle box & sure enough, out pops the Genie. Addressing the genie, Sven says, 'Hey dere! I'm a good friend of your master. Vill you grant me vun vish?' 'Yes, I will,' says the Genie. So Sven asks the Genie for a million bucks. The Genie disappears back into the tackle box leaving Sven sitting there waiting for his million bucks. Shortly, the sky darkens and is filled with the sound of a million ducks....flying directly overhead. Over the roar of the million ducks Sven yells at Ole, 'Yumpin' Yimminy, I asked for a million bucks, not a million ducks!' Ole answers, 'Ya, I forgot to tell yew dat da Genie is hart of hearing. Do yew really tink I asked for a 10-inch Bic?"

A (VERY) QUICK HA HA

A man stubbed his toe so badly he decided to go to the doctor. When he arrived at the office, the nurse directed him to remove his clothes and wait in the next room. "I just hurt my toe," complained the man. "Why do I need to take off my clothes?" "Everyone who sees the doctor has to undress," explained the nurse politely. "It's our policy." "Well, I think it's a stupid policy! Making me undress just to look at my toe! Geeez!" From the next room another man's voice piped up... "That's nothing! I just came here to fix the telephone!"
