Monthly Sentimental: Be Mine

 Hello everyone and happy Friday! 

Welcome to the Daring Cardmarkers blog.

If you've joined in and shared 'In Flight' projects last week, thank you! We hope you'll join in with us this week too! 
If you didn't - don't worry, the Linky is still open for a few more days (as we were late posting. oops!), so please scroll down to the last post and share your creations there.
 
We fancied a change for our First Friday challenges so instead of an inspiring moodboard each month,  this year, on the first Friday of each month we'll have a Monthly Sentimental Challenge
We all find ourselves in need a card for a particular or special reason, don't we? And sometimes it would be good to have just the thing ready to send. 
 So once a month we'll concentrate on a specific sentiment.

With it being the first friday oif February there was only one sentiment to choose, don't you think?
 
Be My VALENTINE (or GALENTINE)

As usual, we'll share our ideas and we'd love you to join us keep the inspiration going. Here is some inspiration from our Design Team.
