Happy Thursday everyone!!! One more day and we'll be into the weekend! I'm so glad!! Even though this was a short week, it's been a hectic week, which I'm sure so many of you can relate to!!! Don't forget that you're welcome to use any art mediums here! We love to see 3D, Altered, Cards, Scrapbook pages, crafty yummy goodness...whatever it is that you make by hand that fits our challenge theme!!!

Before we get on to our challenge I would like to say a special "SEE YA LATER" to

Mary B and Sharron M

I can't thank you ladies enough for all your hard work and dedication while you were here!! I wish you nothing but the best. I consider both of you a close friend and you'll always have a home here. So whenever you're able to come back, I'll be answering the door :)
On that note, we would like to welcome two special ladies to our group!

Lisa M of You Made Me Ink

and

Sarah-Louise aka Tiggertastic of Tiggertastic

Please give all of these ladies a warm 'see ya later' and 'welcome'!!! We're sad to see Mary and Sharron have to leave, but we're excited to get to know Lisa and Sarah-Louise!

Our challenge theme we have for you this time is what else but VALENTINE/LOVE and for those folks that may not like either one of those, we've also added ANIMALS to it. We want everyone to be able to play along, so we always like to give a few choices in case one or the other doesn't work for you.

We have a wonderful and lovely sponsor with us this challenge! The one and only...

Annette

Hi Everyone, I'm Annette and have been using Stampfairy digis for about a year, and I'm absolutely hooked on these cute critters and kids.

I love using my copics, pencils, Stardust pens and shimmer chalks to bring them to life. I also love pretty papers and believe that no card is complete without a bit of glitter! I hope you like our Stampfairy creations, and I can't wait to see what you create for this fun challenge.
