Happy Friday friends! Today Mona joins us to share an amazing “hug in a card”! She combined Giant Sending Big Hugs and Happy Hugs to create a gorgeous and unique card design!

In order to create this unique design, Mona dry embossed Giant Sending Big Hugs on a white cardstock panel. To dry-emboss you will need a rubber embossing mat, it will allow the die to emboss the image without cutting the paper.

Now comes the oh-so clever part of this unique design! Mona used masking paper to cut a mask with Giant Sending Big Hugs. After she covered the embossed sentiment with the mask, she ink blended the background. Then she used the Scene Builder Stencils: Bayou and continued ink-blending. The final step was for Mona to remove the mask and color the sentiment!

I love how Mona used the cute critters in an embrace to fill in for the “hugs” in the Giant Sending Big Hugs greeting! To put together this sweet Autumn vignette, Mona combined critters from Happy Hugs with Scootin’ By! Then she added pumpkins and falling leaves from Happy Harvest, Jump for Joy and Let’s Go Nuts!

I absolutely love this creative card, Mona! Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
