Challenge #68 'Be My Valentine'

Firstly, thank you to everyone who took part in Michelle's challenge last month. But before I let everyone know the challenge for this month, I have some news.....

.....after much contemplation, I have decided to close down the challenge blog for the foreseeable future.  Our February challenge will be our last and I hope that you will all thank the amazing design team, past and present, for their inspiration since we started back in May 2011. 

 It's my turn to host and I have chosen this super sweet inspiration photo.....

and ask that you create a card or a project inspired by the colours in the photo with a VALENTINES / LOVE theme PLUS RIBBONS!!

And now for some inspiration from our fabulous Design Team girls.
