I started with this really darling stamp from Lawn Fawn. When this came out, I couldn't help but get it - it's just too, too sweet! I have had a lot of Hamsters in my day... ;) My first was Pinkie, when I was quite young. Then there was Jesse, Iggy and Queen Jane.
For the sentiment for this one I wanted it to match the colour blocking in the background. I took my Stampin' Write Markers and drew a line across one of my acrylic blocks in each of the colours. Then I picked up the ink on my stamp from the acryclic block. Have a looksee!
I had to give it a go a couple times to get it 'just right', but we got there :)
Check out the challenge this week:
