Hedgie St. Patrick's Card - TMS #594

Dia dhuit to my Irish friends or hello if that suits you better. Today at Tuesday Morning Sketches we start our 2021 sketches with one designed by Melissa Craig. Since St. Patrick's Day is getting closer I decided to make a cute card to send to my youngest niece. My family does have an Irish history, so I make a few cards to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. The Hedgie image used on this card is by Bugaboo Stamps and it was colored with Copic markers.  The fun papers are from the Lots O' Luck paper pad by Doodlebug Designs (2018) and the shamrocks were punched and adhered to 1" circles. That's it! I hope you will join us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches. Click HERE for all the challenge details and design team inspiration. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!  

Sketch #594:

Hedgie Birthday Card

Hooray for Friday! 😊 Although my hubby had his hair cut on Tuesday and Thursday he got a text from the lady who cut his hair, she tested positive for Covid. They were both wearing masks, but he is now on quarantine at home. We are praying he doesn't get it!

I made another birthday card to play along with the 11th Birthday Bash at Catch The Bug. This Hedgie Birthday Card is for day 4 which is a bingo challenge. I used the middle row across: die cut, Bugaboo image, 3 layers. The papers might look familiar... I used the boy colors on the card posted on Monday. I arranged the papers the same but changed the image shape and sentiment placement. I think it turned out pretty cute! This card is also entered into the Anything Goes challenge at Aud Sentiments. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day.

Birthday Bouquet Card

Greetings and thanks for stopping by my blog today! Work has been pretty busy this past week, so I didn't have much crafting time. This Birthday Bouquet Card was completed over the course of several days. I started by picking the papers and then coloring the Quill image by Whipper Snapper Designs with Copic markers. A stitched square die was used to cut out the image. I stamped the birthday sentiment directly onto the patterned paper (Simple Stories, Life In Color from 2016) with Memento black ink. Everything was adhered flat for easy shipping. The final touch was adding the little pink flower and leaves. That's it! Hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

Challenges entered: Aud Sentiments (Birthday Sentiment), Crafty Catz (Anything Goes/Add Sentiment), Moving Along With The Times (Floral) and Watercooler Wednesday (All About Occasions). 

Hedgehog St. Patrick's Day Card

Hello! I hope you're having a fantastic day! Yesterday was my last day at my seasonal job, so now I have more time to spend crafting. For some reason my husband thinks I should spend more time cleaning, but that just doesn't sound like fun. My creative side has a real conflict with organizing!

Since green is one of my favorite colors, I really enjoy making cards for St. Patrick's Day. I don't make that many, just enough for family because it's fun to receive a card for something unexpected like St. Patrick's Day. This Hedgehog St. Patrick's Day Card features a cute image by Bugaboo Stamps called March Hedgie St. Patrick's Day. The image was die cut with a stitched circle die by My Favorite Things. Copic markers were used to color the image and all patterned papers are by The Paper Studio. The mood board at SumMore Fun helped to inspire the shades of green and gold sequins. That's it, thanks for stopping by.

Christmas Hedgie Card and Tag

It's day 3 of Holiday Chaos at the Catch The Bug blog and I'm trying to play along with all challenges. The Christmas Hedgie Card above is for the day 2 sketch challenge and below is day 3 for a Tag with Red and White Stripes. The image is called Christmas Hedgie and I used the colored version to speed things along. All papers are by Doodlebug Designs and the Merry Christmas sentiment on the card is by Kaiser Craft. On the tag... well, it's pretty simple. I used a scalloped oval frame set by Avery Elle and some Stickles for sparkle. That's it! Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!

Sweet Hedgehog Birthday Card

Today we welcome the month of June and the launch of the new Stampin' Up! catatlog!!! Have you found your new favorite product yet? There are lots of wonderful new items to choose from! Click here to check out the new catalog.

To make this Sweet Hedgehog Birthday Card I've used the new Affectionately Yours dsp and the sweet hedgehogs from the hostess stamp set called Love You Lots and they were colored using Copic markers. The layout is from Paper Play Sketches and I combined it with the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge at The Paper Players. I used the top row across for Yellow, Twine and Birthday. The yellow panel was embossed using the decorative dots embossing folder. For a little more detail I added a butterfly charm and three yellow sequins. The green really overpowers the yellow but hopefully there is enough yellow on this card for the challenge. I'm also entering this card in the Ooh La La Creations challenge for Critters with 4 Legs.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!
