The Friday Fling Creates Valentine Cards!
Friday Fling #167 February 10th 2012
The Big Love Day is approaching! We though we’d give you a chance to save yourself some money by creating your own Valentine card!
So this week’s challenge is to write a Valentine card verse for your favorite Valentine. Since we’re into formats on the Friday Fling, and shape formats look nice on Valentine cards, we thought of the Lanturne. ShadowPoetry.com explains this format:
The Lanturne is a five-line verse shaped like a Japanese lantern with a syllabic pattern of one, two, three, four, one.
Swift
Winds blow
threatening,
a tornado
grows.

Easy huh? This week the Friday Fling holds the Lanturne of love high for Valentine’s Day!
Be sure to save time to read and comment brightly on your fellow Pals’ illuminations. Then go off and enjoy your weekend! But be sure not to forget to print out your Friday Fling-featured Valentine card!
Here are a few possible designs to use for your card.

Congratulations Barbara!
Welcome everyone to the Friday Fling! Remember when you were in school and exchanged valentines with the other kids in your class? Well we’re grown up now and the meaning of giving a valentine has changed a little! But this week we’re having a Valentine-making party! We suggested the Lanturne format because it’s short and sweet like those Valentines you used to exchange at school. But we’re thinking of more grown up sentiments!
If you have trouble with syllable counting, any style will do. The important thing, as always, is to Be Creative, Have Fun, and Show Some Love! Which reminds, be sure to click on the number next to the heart at the top if you love this challenge!
