CHALLENGE #37 - VALENTINE

Firstly, a big thank you to all who took part in our 'Butterlies' challenge, we thoroughly enjoyed seeing all your fabulous creations.

The lucky winner of the green ribbon kit from The Ribbon Girl is Irene, congratulations!  Please email Mandy your address and we will pop that in the post to you.

For our next theme we'd love to see your Valentine inspired projects.  We like to keep the interpretation of our themes open, so please don't feel you have to make a valentine card.  Your project can include anything that has been inspired by valentines day, for example, hearts, the colours red and pink, romantic lace etc.

We look forward to seeing your wonderful creations and hope the design team projects inspire your creativity.  If you'd like to find out more about our creations click on our names and you will be taken to our personal blogs.












Our little give away for this challenge is this lovely Craft Concepts embossing folder.

As our butterfly theme continues, I've been busy with my new sewing machine that Santa delivered!

My latest butterfly card was made using a selection of different butterfly dies together with a gorgeous Melissa Frances shabby keyhole.
