Hedgehog Friendship
I made a card for today’s sketch challenge on SCS.
I still had the Fun & Fast Notes out from yesterday’s card and thought I show off my second favorite stamp of this set. (Yes….I am rather sloppy about cleaning up my work space. LOL)
The sketch called for a rectangular card and I made one. I am still grinning from ear to ear, because I haven’t made a regular shaped card in what feels like forever!
The card base is Chocolate Chip (no surprise there). I layered a piece of So Saffron and a piece of Certainly Celery Prints designer paper over it. Then I added some faux Stitches with my trusted All in a Row stamp set on the edges of the paper.
The image is stamped in Brown Stazon on Shimmery White cardstock. I added a little grass and ground and colored it in with Aqua Painter and Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Certainly Celery, Regal Rose and Bashful Blue classic inks.
Those little darling flowers were punched out with the Three for You punch. The Brads are from the Rich Regal and Soft Subtles brad pack.

How cute is this! I seriously thought you have zigzag stitched the card and then saw the stamp on the side of the photo & read your directions and WOW I’m impressed and probably in need of that stamp set too! Great card. Ida
