I was away until pretty late yesterday and had to work today so I had to really premeditate for this card - pulled out the catalog and from there decided what stamp set would go well with these colors - (on my way home from MN) I chose Pool Party for dessert- (any blue). Pretty colors - and I just love the hedgehogs in this set - Happy New Year and Happy Tuesday!!

This couldn't be sweeter and what a great image to illustrate you wonderful sentiment. And, the mango card base adds even warm warmth to this charmer. Adorable card.
Hope you are well and fully recovered from all that illness "stuff" (wanted to use a stronger word, but resisted) and that the New Year will be smooth sailing.

This is adorable, Karen! I love how you used the branch twice in your design and that hedgehog is just SO cute. We are going to have to get together on one of your Minnesota trips sometime...though I imagine it would be hard to pull yourself away from the grands.

Incredible and beautiful, Karen! I love the way you used the branch both vertically (like a tree) and at an angle. That adds so much interest to your scene. But of course, that adorable hedgehog is the star. She is adorable! Wonderful card!

I just adore that cute little hedgehog! He looks so content with the subtle sponged background and the lovely foliage, The scalloped background was a great design choice. Great card.

Sweet scene! Beautifully colored. Perfect for the challenge colors. Love the butterfly on the hedgehog's nose. The scallop edges are a nice touch. I love the sentiment about the best discovery!
