Anniversary hugs & blessings

Here is my card for this month using the image from Gerda Steiner called Hedgehog Smooches for the Monthly Challenge.  I made this a simple card and used a sentiment from TLC to make it an anniversary card.

BLOG VACATION

For those of you who are my regular followers, I will be taking a little time off through the rest of January from blogging so I won't be around commenting on your blogs.  I will be back in February and catch up then.  If you are a regular follower remember that I am giving away some treats after Valentines so see my Give Away Post for more info.  Many hugs and warm wishes sent your way!

No kitten I'd love to be your Valentine

Here is the Stamp of the Month from Gerda Steiner which also happens to be a kitten which is just adorable.  For my card, I used a sentiment from TLC which I thought was just perfect.  I kept it fairly simple and just added a gem heart.
