Hamster Family Holiday

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day! I'm feeling a little under the weather.. actually for about a week now. Feels like a regular cold but how do you keep your mind from wandering to bad thoughts? Is this it? Is it my turn for Covid? I sure hope not! I checked on line for testing sights and there aren't any available appointments until next week. I'm just going to pamper myself and take it easy today.

I'm playing along at Cupcake Inspirations today where this is the yummy inspiration this time! Aren't the snow people adorable? I love all the little details.. especially the eye glasses!
My cards always start out with arranging images on a sheet of clear plastic the size of my card base. These cuties are from the Waffle Flower Christmas Hamster Family set. I love all the details in this set too. the little hats, cups, scarves, presents and more!

Because everything is arranged on a sheet of clear plastic I can slide different backgrounds underneath to get a peek preview of what they'll look like. I decided on this soft pastel Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac Distress Ink background.

I added some purple jewels and a simple Labelmaker Holiday sentiment to the top. If you haven't seen the Labelmaker series from Waffle Flower you need to check them out. You get TONS of label type sentiments on one big stamp and you cut them all at the same time with ONE die.
Here's an angled shot to help you see the dimension one the card. Some of the images are adhered with adhesive foam tape while others are adhered flat to the card base.
 
Stay safe and warm and big hugs to you!
