- One of the allrecipe.com users, Celeste, submitted a photo of a Valentine’s Day (or I should say Night) picnic she created for her and her husband fireside at their home. Looks very romantic.

When all else fails, wait until the kids are in bed and put on a movie. It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you are together.
Photo Frame How to:
- Open valentinewrap.psd in PhotoShop.
- Click (highlight) on the “Insert your photo here†layer.

- Save the file as a JPG. (File Menu, Save as.)
Enjoy!
