Party Animals

Hello, Crafty Friends!

This is Laurie from Crafty Sisters Creations and I'm pleased to introduce the challenge for this week--PARTY ANIMALS!! Most of my design team sisters chose to use the Balloon Animals February Stamp of the Month as their party animals, but don't let that limit your imaginations. Your party animals could be friends or family celebrating at a special event, an outing at the zoo or even your own pets in a party mood! Let the party spirit take you where it will and then link up your projects below for everyone to enjoy!

Our first project is from Guest Designer, Kathleen Androlewicz from Life is Like a Bowl of Stamps. Be sure to visit her blog and give her a big party cheer for this adorable card!

Favorite Paper Pack

Welcome to this week's Heart2Heart Challenge! This week's theme is all about your favorite Close To My Heart Paper Pack.

Close To My Heart releases several paper packs every quarter in addition to the annual inspiration paper packs and it's so hard to just pick one so feel free to share one or many. You will have all month long to participate in any (or all) of this month's challenges!

We're excited to welcome Guest Designer Kathleen Androlewicz for the month of February! Her project this week is in honor of her new twin nephews. (Aww!)

Team "Pomegranate" is here to show you where this challenge took them! Browse the projects these talented ladies created and then see where the inspiration takes you. Bring it back here and link up by the end of the month for a chance to win bragging rights.
