...is worth two in the tree


     Love is in the air. Can you feel it?  ☺  Valentines Day is creeping up on us and the TSG Trendsetters are challenging you to create a card with a "love is in the air" theme.  Hop on over to the There She Goes blog to check out the other inspiration creations from my team mates and then link up a card to play along.  There are lots of cutie patootie Valentine and love themed stamps in the TSG shop so pop in there for a look see.  You're not required to use a TSG stamp for the challenge, but you just might find something you can't do without in the store.  hee hee
     I've used some images and a sentiment from the Love Birds set and colored them up with Copics.
     Hope you have a fantastic week!
