Next, since I've been neglecting my color pencils for awhile I decided to color the images using Faber Castell’s ...
Hi Everyone, A stamp set that always make me happy is MFT's Happy Hedgehogs - it's just a cute set with so many adorable images and great sentiments!

Hi Everyone, One of my favorite stamp companies is Hello Bluebird - I just love their adorable images and wonderful dies! Every release is like Christmas morning to me!
