Playful Animals
Hi readers! Happy Sunday to you! I hope your weekend is going wonderfully! I’m always pleased to have the very talented Lucy Abrams as a guest on our blog. Today she made two very cute cards with the new Playful Animals stamp set from Hero Arts! Enjoy!
Hello. It’s Lucy Abrams here today, and I have a pair of 4 x 4″ cards to share with you, made with a mixture of Hero Arts and Simon Says Stamp products.
Hero Arts’ new Playful Animals set is perfect for creating cute little notecards like these, and the critters in this set match really well with the sentiments in the new Stamp Your Own Fruit set.
I started off by creating my hedgehog card, using patterned papers from Lawn Fawn’s new Let’s Polka Mon Amie 6 x 6 pad, and both the Stitched Circles and Stitched Squares dies from Simon Says Stamp.
I added some Glossy Accents to my hedgehog’s eyes and nose, and embellished the card with some Pale Pink Sequins.
One of my favorite things about the Stitched dies is that the leftovers are just as pretty and you HAVE to use them up… So, once I’d finished my hedgehog, I used the scrap circle to make my mouse card.
I chose papers from Pebbles’ Special Delivery Girl pad to complement the pink, and added some Moonshine sequins and a bit of silver stitching for some sparkle.
Thanks so much for joining me today!
