So many cute ideas came to mind when I first got this set. Let me share a few with you now!


This card is based on a design in our How-to book called Wishes. Papers are from the Splendor pack in our Summer Idea Book. The whimsical papers go so well with this stamp set! Colors are Colonial White, Goldrush, Brown Bag, Heavenly Blue and Moonstruck. The Edge Distresser was used on the circles. The small circle with thebutterflies is raised up on 3D Foam. I addeda touch of Twill as well.

This is a couple of cards showing how one design can look with just little changes. I rotated the card from top fold to side fold and changed the image. Look at the different feel that creates!
Papers are from the Zippidee paper kit in our Summer Idea Book. Colors used are Desert Sand, Cranberry, Honey and Indian Corn Blue...all taken directly from the kit! Watercolor pencils were used with a touch of a Blending Pen to softly blend the colors. There is 3D Foam under the hedgehog to create some depth. Antiqued Copper brads accent the finished design. This design was based on Mojo Monday #137.

I hope you enjoyed your stop here. Thanks for stopping by. There's a lot more to see so keep hopping by going to Haley Dyer's blog to see what she has to show you!
