Hedgehog Love

Hedgehog Love

Card Dimensions: 
 Crumbcake CS - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 (score at 4 1/4), 1 x 5 1/2
Blushing Bride CS - 3 x 4 (scalloped circle), 3/8 x 5 1/2
Whisper White CS - 3 x 4 (oval)
Falling in Love DSP - 4 x 5 1/4

See the hint of shimmer on the flower?  It's Clear Wink of Stella.

Aren't these little hedgehogs the CUTEST??  This would be a GREAT Valentine's day card!  Don't you think??!!  I am just in LOVE with this stamp set!  The images are whimsical and super sweet and perfect for sending to a loved one, or a good friend.  It would bring a smile to anyone's face that received a card with this on it!!  BEST part is.... It's FREE with Hostess Rewards!!  Who doesn't love free stuff, especially stamp sets!  

This card was created using the Paper & Ink Sketch #13.  I just love the soft colors from the Falling in Love DSP pack.  The piece of paper that I used for this card was cut from the top of the 12x12 piece, where the hearts were more random than the rest of the paper.  


Every 2nd and 4th Wednesday, I hold a sketch challenge over on my Jen's Scrappy Pages Facebook Page.  You have a week to complete the challenge and upload it to the Sketch Challenge post.  Everyone who plays along, is entered into a drawing for a free goodie from me!  It's a lot of fun and would LOVE for you to play along!!

Enjoy this quick video showing how to create this sweet and simple card!!

 Don't forget there is a downloadable/printable document at the bottom of the supplies list that includes a pic of the card along with the dimensions!

Flower Power

Flower Power
Dimensions: 
Sweet Sugarplum CS - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 (score at 4 1/4), 3 3/4 x 3 3/4, 3/4" circle
Whisper White CS - 4 x 5 1/2, 3 1/2 x 3 1/2
Succulent Garden DSP - 3 3/8 x 3 3/8
(Ribbon is from the Succulent Garden 3/8" ribbon pack)

This card uses Calypso Coral.  The ribbon is from the 
Cupcakes & Carousels embellishment pack.  LOVE it!!

This card uses Mint Macaron.  The ribbon is Mint Macaron
Sheer Linen.  It is SO soft!!

Hey All!!  Aren't these the sweetest cards ever??!!  I just LOVE how cheery they are!  Not to mention they were SUPER SIMPLE to put together!  I kept the sentiment the same for all 3 cards, but it could certainly be different for each one.  I love sending out Thinking of You cards.  It's always wonderful to know that someone is thinking of us, isn't it?

My video for this card show how to create the top card using Sweet Sugarplum.  It was the first card I made out of the three.  I could have created hundreds of these cards, using different colors/patterned papers!!  These would make AWESOME gifts for the card sender in your life!  Maybe make up a pack of 12, 4 of each, using different sentiments.



Enjoy the video!!  Let me know if you have any questions!!  If you would like to purchase any of the supplies to create these cards, don't forget to use January's HOSTESS CODE H44EAADX.  I give out goodies at the end of the month to those who place orders with me!!  If your order is $150 or more, let me know before you place your order.

Stampin' Up! Supplies Used: 
I included supplies used on all 3 cards

SCREAM!!!!  I have some SUPER EXCITING NEWS for you all!!  I have completed my VERY FIRST video tutorial!!  YAY ME!!  LOL  This is HUGE for me.  For one, I really don't like the sound of my voice.  And two, I've made several other attempts at creating a video for previous cards that I have created, but never got past all the bloopers to post any of them!  

Please bare with me as I get used to creating videos.  It's a LOT harder than I EVER imagined.  I've watched plenty of other crafter's videos and thought to myself.... I could TOTALLY do that!  But when I actually sat down to make a video, I got all tongue tied and nothing seemed to come out of my mouth that sounded even half way coherent.  

This video is a bit on the long side.  But I hope you watch and learn a little something from it!!  In addition to the video for this card, you can also download FREE printable PDF that includes the dimensions for this card.

Drumroll please......
