Good luck everyone and we look forward to seeing your entries.

Fab creations everyone, Debbie that box is just gorgeous and the word Hugs looks 3d. Will try and do my card soon.

What beautiful inspiration from the wonderful DT members - certainly will get your creative juices flowing.

Cazzy yes the 'HUGS' are 3D - I used Anita's 3D gloss on top - gives a brilliant effect.

I have a step by step pictorial on how I altered this mini dartboard case and will pop it on my blog shortly.

It was a huge pleasure to sponsor QC this month - you are all such wonderful pals.

Fabby inspiration everyone xxx thanks again to debbie for sponsoring us

Gorgeous creations girls and what a variety!

Julia - I love your birthday book it's super scrummy.

I love what everyone has done for this challenge. I really need to get more practice at my card making again. I really find it hard to do these days. Love the tags and ATCs as well. Great variety and wonderful inspiration.

Wow Fe I have just seen your card using my Ted stamps - I am sure it wasn't there before..lol
It is stunning - I love how you have just coloured the ball and the heart - thank you soo much for using them.

I've just loaded mine onto the blog Fe.

Gorgeous everyone! i love the variety and they are all so cute and fun. I will put my thinking cap on and have a go, but not until after the weekend as I am away.

This is a slight cheat as it wasn't made for this challenge, but I thought I would show it to you....I will try and do something new next week if I get the time.
Alex loves his little hand knitted teddy...these photos were taken over a year ago...teddy now looks the worse for wear and has to be stitched up on a regular basis. Tim has nicknamed him 'Frankented!'

That is so cute Caro.

Love it Caro!!

Lovely Caro.

aw those photos are so cute Caro love the layout, oooh may have to scraplift this one x

Here's my entry - I have been asked to do a few Valentine cards for people at work so had the perfect excuse to buy the new Forever Friends stamp set (only £3.99 so a bargain for such cuteness!).

I've just realised that my card has a similar layout to Caro's with three pictures in the middle - spooky! Great layout Caro - I still have my chewed up Teddy from my long-gone youth!
