Spring Hedgehog Gnome

 

Spring is in the air!  For this Polkadoodles DT project, I was inspired to use the ‘Spring Hedgehog Gnome’ to create a joyful card.  I coloured the main image and the bees with Promarkers and pencils and then stamped and coloured the flowers from the ‘Flower Power 1’ stamp set.

To make the grass I used the ‘Great Outdoors’ stencil with two shades of green distress ink and then fussy cut.  I created the card blank using a matching digi paper from the ‘Spring Gnomes’ paper pack and I then attached a piece of strong acetate to the front.  I assembled my composition using foam pads for dimension, adhering the bees on to the acetate to create the illusion that are flying freely around the gnome.

I hope you like this card and I look forward to seeing your makes this month.

Happy Crafting!
