Christmas Hedgehog

 Hello there

Today I'm sharing a christmas card.....eek......well,

I know it's a BIT early, but I was having a sort out, and had some NBUS,

that I just wanted to try out, before finding them a home.......

I'd cut this huge "christmas", and smaller "merry", and had rediscovered this cute Hedgie stamp,

that was a prize from the Snippets Playground, a while ago, 

and I had thought of using it for that all-in-a-row challenge, 

which I ended up doing with a pennants set instead.


I had this idea pop into my head, and spent some lovely playtime putting it onto a card.
I used Blender Pens to colour.

Using courage I'd gained from following Vicky Hayes, I hand drew the left hand 
"washing line", to attached it to the large "c", then hung the "merry" up to dry.

The green "merry" was from a very small snippet, 
so I'm hoping I'm allowed to enter the Playground challenge,
along with the Rudolph Day challenge, as it's a christmas card,
 and Darnell's NBUS, because the sentiments were "never before used stuff" (thinlits).

Take care
Stay safe
Thinking of you

Lesley

    Lesley, c'mon, this couldn't be a cuter design for a totally fun Christmas card! I absolutely love how you made this! You gained your courage from the uber-talented Vicky and now you, in turn, will be a source of courage for me and others! Thank you for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Take care and keep safe! Hugs, Darnell

    This is such a cute card. I love the clothesline and that you drew it yourself. Very clever. I also like the green and red sentiment.

    I'm so delighted to see you using this stamp Lesley! And How very clever to extend the washing line as you did. Of course the Merry counts as a snippet. This is a shop quality design!

    Hugs
