Moose Card

I got this image from Whipper Snapper.  I thought he was so cute holding the rose in his mouth.  I cut out one of the hearts and popped it up on a dimensional to give it a little something extra.  I tried using squares behind opposite corners to give it a little added emphasis.  I got a set of saying stamps from Verve that I have been using lately as I have a few cards…

Hedgehog on Daisy

Ahhh!  I realized after posting this that my sentiment is crooked.  Oh well, can’t do anything about it now but will have to fix it before I send it (mmm… maybe, just shows the fact that it is handstamped and not perfect!). I have been having a blast using my Penny Black images.  I just love Hedgehogs.  Anybody know of any other companies that make cute hedgehog stamps? I relaly like the layout of this…
