Today I went to ShopKo to buy Valentines. Once I got there I thought “why should I pay four dollars for a card I barely even like?” I love Valentine’s Day but I resent the gouging that goes on as we’re pressured to celebrate in a specific way. I decided to help out my Exponent sisters by providing you with some Exponent-y Valentines. I’d had this idea for about two weeks but realized that I have neither the programs nor the ability to do some fancy-shmancy photoshop. So this is the product of me, Paintbrush and an evening in my jammies watching the Olympics.
Eliza R. Snow:
You, single? The thought makes reason stare!
Emma Hale Smith:
I elect me to be your lady!
Lucy Mack Smith:
Sitting next to you is always heaven to me!
From the Exponent II:
My love for you grows Exponent-ially!
Happy Valentine’s Day to all my sisters!

Thanks! I was so pleased to find that my childhood skills at very basic programs are still useful.

Fantastic! I love you all too.
Wonderful! Please print and sell boxed sets next year!
Ha! My husband actually printed out that last one about Exponent and made a Valentine’s card with it. I was wondering where he got the idea. 🙂 Great job, Em.
I love that, Caroline.
I love these!!! Em, you’re awesome.
Thanks for linking back to these! I don’t know how I missed them when they were first posted last year. I love them! So hilarious!
[…] It is that time of year again…that last minute scramble to find the ideal way to tell someone you love how much they mean to you. You want that perfect card: something visually beautiful that can be displayed with pride on a desk or at home but also with the message that perfectly captures the feelings of your heart. Last year The Exponent Blog proudly (reluctantly? unwittingly until it was too late?) introduced a line of tasteful and timeless Church history Valentines, featuring your favorite friends from Nauvoo. If that theme better fits your Valentine’s style, check them out here! […]
[…] that perfect way to say “I love you.” You can access the church history collection here and the women of the Bible collection here. I know that many of you have been worried that we […]
