happy day


Have you noticed my current fad? No, not the friendly flags again! Yep, it's stamping directly onto my card. This time I used my Hero Arts 'happy definition' for the background. To get a white space I used a square post it note over the middle of the stamp. Worked a treat.

I stamped 'hedge delivery' by Penny Black in the space and coloured with water colour pencils.


I then stamped out three Hero Arts buttons, coloured with copics and cut them out (really to cover the corner where the post it note didn't quite do the trick).
I added a stamped sentiment and doodled round the hedgie and the edge of the card.

I am entering this card into the current Delightful Challenges....Celebration.

Looks great Liz...it's a fab technique...Do you have a Stampin Up Stamp-A-Ma-Jig for lining up your stamp or do you use clear stamps?...I love my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig for lining up perfectly everytime!!!...x
