Happy Hedgehogs

Happy Hedgehogs is such an adorable set! It does have a coordinating hedgehog punch but I didn't use that on these cards. I do have other cards that I have shared where I do use the punch. You can search for them on the right side of my blog or click on the Happy Hedgehog link at the bottom of this post to see those.

Soft Seafoam is not an easy color for me to work with. It's so soft and the ink is even softer. I have to force myself to pull it from the shelf but when I do, I'm always pleased with the way my project turns out. I really should just use it more. The background layer is embossed with Ferns embossing folder and I ran my ink pad over the top to bring out some of the embossing.

Inked & Tiled Scrapbook Pages

I enjoy making scrapbook pages but I have to admit that they are also easy to push to the side and not do. They take up a lot of space when I'm working on them. I do try to clean up my desk whenever I finish a project so that the new projects have space but 24" across the desk is a lot!

This set of pages started with a sketch. I think most of my pages start with a sketch. I'm not sure how good I would do without the structure of the sketch. I then pick a stamp set and work to create the pages.

Pick of the Patch

Okay, Okay. I know. I am way behind! I did have these cards made before Halloween. I even got a couple in the mail but, alas, I didn't get them on here in a very timely manner though. I still wanted to share because this is such an adorable stamp set and it just recently retired. 

I embossed a piece of Basic Black cardstock with the Quatrefoil embossing folder. I stamped the 5 pumpkins and stems on Basic White cardstock and punched them out. I added the faces and adhered them to the front of the card with dimensionals. I made the scalloped rectangle smaller. You can see how I did that HERE.

Circle Sayings

Circle Sayings is another stamp set that will work for many occasions. You can see from this first card that there is a "Warm Hello" greeting. I used Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat for this card.

Happy New Year!

Yes, I realize that the new year started a week ago but this is the first time I am posting in the new year so I wanted to wish you all a happy new year!

I have this class that I am offering for my Class at Home. This class is a bit different than what I have done in the past.
