Challenge #48 ~ Friendship February 1 - 10

Hello Extraordinary Crafters!

Hi everyone. Happy February if that's not an oxymoron for you. Some people dislike February because they are tired of snow and want to see the sun for longer than winter allows. Others love February because it's a wonderful time to celebrate love and those people who are dear to us. In Canada, not only do we have Valentines Day but we also have Family Day which is a holiday for many. In honour of February, our theme for this month's challenge is Friendship. Unky has created this fabulous freebie image found in this month's newsletter just for the occasion. It's called...Baby Aurora Friendship.
