Hi Everyone,
Does this ever happen to you? You have ideas flowing through your mind on how to use a particular stamp but when you sit down to turn them into reality, you just cannot get them to work? It happened to me yesterday/today. I just couldn’t get the ideas in my head to work out on paper. I tried a few times and eventually decided it was time to walk away and try something else. Will tackle the project another day.
On my desk I still had one stamped and coloured image of the hedgehog from the “Paint the Town” set by Penny Black, Thought I might as well make it into a finished card and let me tell you, I *love* how this card, and the following one, turned out. A great feeling after my earlier creative issues. lol I had recently purchased the Love Quarters template from KaiserCraft and had been dying to use them. Seemed like the perfect time to do so.
Here’s the card…

I Love You
Materials used: Stamps – Paint the Town (Penny Black), The Big, The Bold and the Happy (Winnie & Walter); Cardstock – American Craft; Knighst Smooth; Stencil – KaiserCraft; Dies – Die-namics Blueprints 8 (My Favourite Things); Copic Markers, Hero Arts Shadow Inks; Mr Huey’s Colour Mist – Shine and Wink of Stella.
As I wasn’t really sure of my colour choices I ended up making another card at the same time but this time I kept it even more simple using word stamps from Winnie & Walter.
Here’s the card…
