Hedgie Does The River Dance

I could just see this as the title in the papers for this card lol x Is my sense of humour comingback or have l gone totally loopy? Well it is green and it is nearly St Patricks day lol.
As l was last minute with last weeks Penny Black challenge l thought l had better get it done early this week and have combined it with a couple of other challenges too.
The image is from a stamp with 3 hedgies on but as l needed a small card l just used the last one, l bought some new sentiments this week that would have fitted this perfectly but they seem to have gone awol from my desk so l have printed one out.

Skating Tilda

Good evening to all you lovely bloggers and welcome to my newest followers and to anyone else who may be stopping by.  As much as l have tried to be organised this week l have failed miserably..... Today l started my annual spring clean and intend to do one room a day leaving no cupboard untouched, the lounge was the first to be blitzed.
On with the card, this is one of my new Tilda stamps that has been reissued and l could not wait to stamp her up. I love how these sitting Tilda's just perch on the edge of a mount and l have given her my usual sparkle with glamour dust and stickles.
Two of the papers are Magnolia and l have just stamped little snowflakes onto the white one and the lilac paper is a papermania (l think) all the edges have been distressed with inks.
