Hmm... Can you ditch nearly all of the expected Valentine colors and still call it a (late) Valentine? I think you can. :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2400 X 3600 pixels. See one original source here .

Often, I'm not satisfied with the Type Boxes I make. At least, not until many weeks or even months after they're finished. What I do love here is that my brain kept trying to turn the very concept of "Green + Red" automatically into "Christmas," but I fought back-- and won!! :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4000 X 2466 pixels. See one original source here . Obligatory late 1980s song reference here .

Shown smaller than the original completed size of 3030 X 2303 pixels. See one original source here .

Nice, simple shapes, but the sheer number of tiny pieces on my tiny screen almost broke me. :o (Almost at the point where I can return to working on paper again. [crosses fingers]) Original Size: 960 X 960 Pixels. One source (albeit changed a lot ) is here .

Same card. Blur tool used on the sink, with Sharpen on the fixtures. The fish had some color adjustments and Sharpening, especially around the eyes. Free Transform on the hearts. Of course the typeface is overhauled, and that's an "Artistic: Rough Pastels" filter on the blue strip at left.

Some Stroke around the figure and knife. Then a 60% level of "Artistic: Poster Edges." Under that is a full opacity layer of "Noise: Add Noise." Some blending with Eraser. Other touch-ups and corrections.

Combined layers of "Artistic: Dry Brush & Cut Out," with "Sketch: Water Paper." Other miscellaneous adjustments and corrections, including Clone Stamp.

Combined filters "Artistic: Pallet Knife" and "Watercolor," plus "Sketch: Conte," with bits of Eraser and Sharpen.
