I have had so much fun reading everyone's blogs regarding this challenge! What an inspiring one!

This is a very cool challenge. I have a question. Can we enter more than once if we have several of the stamps sets?

[Carla K Combs]

Here is what I came up with for the book challenge. I kept it kind of simple. My favorite childrens book is "One Snowy Night" by M. Christina Butler and Tina Macnaughton. I've read this book to all 3 of my children many times. I have this book in my stamping room. This book has influenced alot of my cards to have hedgehogs on them. Also this book has influenced my favorite animal to be hedgehogs. Hope you all like.

Great question Melissa! It is one card per stamp set. So if you purchased 4 different sets, by all means make four cards (one with each!) Can't wait to see what everyone creates and WHO Gina picks....oh my this is exciting :o)
