Merry Christmas to everyone observing the holiday!!! May your Christmas be truly merry and bright!
Today I have the pleasure to once again be guest designing for Kleuren met Potloden (Coloring With Pencils). My card features a digi from one of the challenge's sponsors – Di's Digi Stamps' Winter Hedgy Snuggles (retired). If you're a pencil colorer come join the fun and link up!
I've used a sentiment from one of Cuddly Buddly Crafts' printable sentiment sheets – Barbara Anne Williams Puny Animal Sentiment 2. I like these sentiment sheets and they look particularly good with Di's images, another example of which is this Squishy Kitty card from a few years back whose design I copied for this card. You get a lot of sentiments on each sheet so there's some bang there for your buck. Now in hindsight, I really wonder at the appropriateness of this one as I suppose hedgehogs are probably perceived as more prickly than fuzzy, but oh well they've got some fuzz there, too, so we'll just go with it.
Paper is Bo Bunny Silver & Gold Collection, a small pad magazine freebie I've had at least back to 2016, if not before. I haven't used it in a while and thought it was time I did. The border die is Artemio Lace #6, another item I have used in a long time. This is one of the first dies I bought way back in 2012 and I used it a lot back then. The last time I see it on the blog is 2018 on the Squishy Kitty card mentioned above; another item I'm glad to dig out of my die box and put to use. Little pearls dress up the border die and add bit of bling.
