I love the hedgehog, cat, and doggie stamps in Penny Black's So Loved stamp set, and I wanted to create a card using the hedgehog. This week's sketch challenge and way to use it challenge presented me with the opportunity I needed to use the stamp on a card.
SC682: I took some liberty with the sketch and turned it horizontally, and instead of three hearts, the stamp I used has five hearts. Hope you don't push the reject button, Diane!!
WT673: Lisa asked for cards of love.
I stamped my images onto a piece of X-Press It Blending Card Stock. This card stock is great for copics; however, it has a light gray hue to it. So, if my card seems a little gray, your eyes are not deceiving you.
After stamping the images, I colored them with shades of pink and brown. Each heart is covered with clear Wink of Stella, which shows slightly. I cut a Rose Red panel using Lawn FawnÂ’s Stitched Rectangle Frames and attached the image panel and frame to a Neenah Solar White card base. This is a CAS card to me!!
Thanks so much for leaving comments!

Super Cute! Love how you used the sketch; it's perfectly fine to turn it, flip it, rotate it. No reject button! :-) Love your hanging hearts and the adorable hedgie covered with hearts. So sweet! The sentiment is beautiful. Fabulous card! Great job. TFS
