George will be sitting down to write out three special Valentine's cards next week, and if you'd like your name to be on one of them, read on...
To be in with a shot at winning, we want you to design a Valentine's card for George and upload it to our We Love George Sampson Group on Flickr.
The card can be in any design format you like, but the more creative the better.
