Love is in the Air!

Hello, happy Monday, and welcome to another fun Stamps R Us challenge! This week we're challenging you to make love-themed or Valentine cards, and Robyn's Fetish is our sponsor. She's generously provided the DT with some  great digi images to use for our challenge, and the one I'm using is called "I Toadily Luv U."
I colored this with Copics and mounted it using Spellbinders square and scalloped square dies, along with some Cherry Cobbler card stock and Basic Grey dp. The female frog looked a bit distracted from the male frog's presenting his heart to her, so I stamped a few flies swarming around her head just for fun. She seems to be thinking "hmmmm.........tasty flies or love?" LOL The twin hearts on the sentiment panel were done with a Tonic paper punch.
I hope you'll have time to play along with our love/valentine theme, and as always, you'll have 2 weeks to upload your card. Don't forget to check all the great inspiration you'll find from the rest of the DT's creations right here.
Thanks for stopping by and I wish you all a love-filled day!
