Yes, you may use this picture as Valentine's card, because actually I'd feel honored if you'd do so ♥

I actually didn't believe I would get anything done for this year's Valentine's Day at all due to my exams, then however I created this picture, so... screw you, mind, and screw you, personal forecast!

I started this picture on February 8th in the late evening, because -after having attended my first exam at university ever - I was way too excited and relieved to focus on my Physic studies. Thus, having in mind that Valentine's day was approaching, I joined my family while watching television and sketched this picture quickly. Luckily I bought two cans of energy dring the same day, so I worked till 5am on this picture, went to bed, and finished the picture the next day in the afternoon. One picture done within less than 24 hours, and I still had a fair amount of sleep - I usually don't do stuff like this, but I know that I was used to when I was younger xD *feels old*

Nevertheless, back to the picture ovo; I must say I really like this picture and it was a lot of fun to color, ink and sketch it. I rarely draw direct front views of my characters, because I really have troubles doing so (no, I can't really explain why... seriously o.O; ), yet this one came out very well to my mind. Celeste also looks younger and so happy ;v; so well... that's probably the main reason why I like it so much. If anyone is wondering where her thumbs are... behind the heart-box, pushing it up a little ;D Yeah... The only thing I must apologize for is the sloppy background. I was in a hurry, and cherrytrees with their fluffy pinkness suited the picture in my opinion, though they always look rather weird when I draw them :shrugs:

I actually wanted to draw something similar to this last year, and I can't really remember why I didn't. Oh well... Also this picture was my "second quality" this year again, as I planned on drawing something for my boyfriend instead. I still gotta design a character for him, and I want to create a good character for him. Nothing sloppy, so... I displaced the picture for him for a while. No worries, I'll get it done till June 2nd :'3

Aaaanyways, good that I prepared this description beforehand, otherwise I guess I wouldn't be able to submit it on Valentine's day exactly. Because unlucky me got her Physics exam set on today (oh the joy...), thus keep your fingers crossed for me. But going out for yummy sushi or ramen in Düsseldorf with my boyfriend ~Souseki pretty much cheers me up >v< Soon he'll be in Warsaw for a while, due to work :C And I guess I'll just sit there and draw, because luckily the next exams await me in March. Plenty of time left to study with enough free space to do whatever I want, so... time to start working on the contest prices for the winners :3 This'll be fun to do.
