hello...

I have absolutely fallen in love with these hedgehog stamps!! I borrowed a couple (this one is SU) from a friend of mine b/c I can't decide which ones I want to buy first. I don't plan on having thousands of stamps since I don't want to go into business or anything. I want to make sure that the stamps I own will always be used on a regular basis. This card was just something that I threw together while a friend was hanging out at my house to show her how the cuttlebug worked (as if it's hard to understand, I just wanted to show it off a little). The card is a piece of 9 by 8 1/2 white CS. On top is a 4 1/4 x 8 1/4 piece of bright green CS. The 3 7/8 x 5 1/4 brown CS is embossed using a cuttlebug embossing folder (do you think I can remember the name? Of course not, that would make sense). The hedgehog is stamped on white CS and colored in with colored pencils...nothing fancy, I'm just trying to get used to planing a card out ahead of time. It's mated on bright purple CS. The green/purple checked ribbon was the reason for the color combo; I bought 2 spindles of it with the intentions of using it on birth announcements after my second DD was born but never used it. The "hello..." sentiment is also SU. Originally I was going to hang on to this card just for an extra, but I think I might send it to my g-ma and g-pa, who live in Florida, just to let them know that I've been thinking of them!!
