Hamster Hugs

Another week focusing on Angel Stamps January featured stamp set: Hearts & Hugs. This card features the final animal stamp in this stampset–The Hamster. At least that’s what I’m thinking it is. Am I wrong? Regardless, I think this card is all about giving hamster hugs.

The hamster is giving you a hug by sharing a heart. How do you give hugs when you can’t physically hug them around the neck or give a big bear hug?

What are your ideas about giving a hug when you can’t give a physical bear hug?

Card Details

Do you want to feature gorgeous patterned paper, but not lose your featured image in the process? I want to help turn your stress into success. Add a cardstock frame to put your featured image on or tear off a corner of the patterned paper to show solid cardstock underneath

This card started by choosing the pattern used for the front of the card from the Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper Pack. Then the other colors were chosen for card base, other cardstock, and ink by matching the colors in the patterned paper.

This results in a coordinated card featuring the hamster hugging a heart.
