Top Picks Challenge #360 and Reminder Post - Challenge #361 - Visual Prompt - February Collage

 Welcome to our two part post.

**First, a reminder that you have until Friday, February 27 at 11:59 pm (GMT) to play in Challenge #361 - Visual Prompt - February Collage - found HERE. Currently, we have 15 beauties in the gallery; lets see if we can double - or even triple - that in the next week! 

Second, the gallery of 45 cards/projects for our Word Prompt – XOXO made our hearts smile. Who knew that hugs-and-kisses could be expressed in such a wide variety of ways. Thank you, again, for joining us. 

As always, narrowing down our Top Picks was a challenge. Your creativity, craftsmanship and thoughtful interpretations make the process both inspiring and delightfully difficult.

Our Top Picks:

Nancy's pretty shaker mug, hearts and overall design is a lovely XOXO creation.

Carol's honeycomb heart and floral background are ever so pretty, especially with the sweet XOXO tag.

Nancy's grumpy kitty made us laugh; a fun way to share Xs and Os.

Jo's hugs-and-kisses background is a lovely backdrop for her chameleon, who changed colours to match his surroundings. Clever and definitely XOXO-worthy! 

Congratulations to our Top Picks; please take your badge.
