Gosh, 11 years! That's how long I've had this stamp set. I reluctantly went to a SU! party with my BFF in early 2004 and to my surprise, was completely sucked in to the world of stamping. Rubber crack, I tell ya. Hedgehog Happiness was the first set I bought. I also got off to a good start because I won a huge $150 gift basket too (the demonstrators gave out tickets all month long for purchases, attending a class, etc.). The basket was chock full of goodies which helped me along as I was starting out. Flash forward...I'm still making cards and collecting stamps like they're going out of style. I've gotten rid of some sets over the years but I still have some oldies but goodies that I won't part with. I have a dedicated craft room that my husband refers (affectionately) to as Hobby Lobby. Oh, if he only knew. LOL

Super cute Jacqueline, I loved reading your story and I'm sure a lot of us can relate... SO awesome for you to have won a gift basket full of goodies to help get you started. It is nice to give this old favorite a little ink.

What a precious image I love it to bits. I am so glad it got an inking. Your hubby will have to make a sign for the Hobby Lobby.....DTGD Queen Jacqueline. Congratulations on completing all the challenges.

Please don't take your organs to heaven - heaven knows we need them here.
I remember that stamp set!! I love what you did with it! Great layout, and what a cool idea to have the twine and button go only 2/3 across the card. Adorable! Thanks for sharing!

Oh yes. The hedgehogs. So cute! LOVE your paper selection here, too! Everything is adorable! Thanks for playing my challenge!
I have not had home internet service for several days, coupled with sketchy cell service. My apologies for delayed reactions. I've been keeping up with gallery viewing, but commenting was virtually impossible. Truly appreciate your participation here at Splitcoast! Have a great day!
