From The Heart Stamps Weekly Inspiration

 Hi everyone!
 
  Hope this finds you all doing well. Not sure about you, but I sure can't wait for spring to get here! I really shouldn't complain, our winter snowfall wise has been pretty lackluster. We have had our fair share of blistery cold days, but not a 'normal' winter as usual....weird!
But that's ok....I WANT SPRING !
 
I like spring with all the new blooms and birds singing. So I combined this weeks inspiration post with the weekly Sketch 98, the Stamp of The Month and mixed in a lil' spring.


 This weeks sketch: 

 
  February SOTM

The papers in this 6 x 6 pad are WONDERFUL and I couldn't wait to use them when I saw this image!

Lions, and tigers and MONSTERS..........OH MY!!!

Hi everyone!!
I hope you got a chance to take in our DT blog hop last week!
 
My post this week has one of Faith's newer images Monster Sundae!
I knew as soon as I seen him, I wanted to make a card for my oldest granddaughter. I call her my "Mini Me" and I know she would just LOVE this lil guy !!
 
I created my own background paper. I used some scrap I had, but it just needed a little something more. So, I took one of the smaller hearts from my Hero Arts Sweet Hearts stamp set and stamped the hearts.

I think is turned out kinda cute!!

A close up :)
