Lia Griffith, creative director of Ellinee said- “What says ‘Happy Heart Day’ better than geek monsters? This was our inspiration for our Valentine’s Day kit that can be used for kids or adults, in classrooms or in the office. Our illustrator/designer Jennie created these huggable little guys and this is their debut into our crafty world.
