It’s Monday and there are only 3 days left till Valentine’s Day. Are you ready? No pressure, although love should be spread everyday of the year, Valentine’s Day is just an extra special day to show the one you love a little extra love.

This Valentine’s Day do something nice for your cat or dog, and create something special. Check out this pet love canvas art designed using Mod Podge and FolkArt acrylic paints.
