Hedge Hog ~ Holly ~ Corner Flourish

Hello bloggers I hope your weekend is going well.  Today I have a cute hedge hog card for you.

This card began as an A4 sheet of green topsy turvy card stock that I cut and scored to make a 4x4 card blank  Next using the same card stock but the other side I die cut the flourishes using Spellbinders die d-lites 'corner flourish' die set.  They were sprayed with stick and stay and adhered to the card blank.  The hedge hog topper was from my stash, so I don't know what stamp set it is from.  This was punched out with a circle punch and matted onto a red eyelet circle made using Spellbinders eyelet circles die set.  I used pencil crayons to colour the holly and berries.  The completed topper was adhered to the card blank.  Finally I added a faux green leaf gem to each empty corner of the card.

Snowflake Hedgehog Christmas Wishes ~ Spellbinders Create A Flake

Hello bloggers I hope you are well and are having a good week.  Today I have a sweet hedgehog Christmas card.

This card began as a green 6x6 card blank.  The hedgehog topper was stamped and created a few years ago and was never used so I don't know what stamp or die set was used as it was made at a stamping class.  I adhered the topper to the bottom right hand side of the card.

Next I used some white card stock to die cut six snowflakes with Spellbinders 'create a flake 3' die set.  Once die cut I inked through the die using evergreen bough distress ink.  I repeated this method on all of the snowflakes varying the degree of colour I added.  The snowflakes were then layered up with foam pads.  I adhered the snowflakes down the left hand side of the card using foam pads.

The sentiment was stamped onto white card stock using Creative Expressions 'robins' stamp set and festive berries distress ink.  I then die cut it with Spellbinders die d-lites 'frames two' die set.  Whilst still in the die I inked through with the same ink pad.  The sentiment was then adhered to the top right hand side of the card.  Finally I added a faux pearl to the top and bottom of the sentiment.
