Good morning and Happy Saturday! I’m so excited to be joining the hop to celebrate the third release of Heffy Doodle Stamps! After talking online for over a year or so I finally had the opportunity to meet Lesley Oman, the owner of Heffy Doodle, at Creativation a few weeks ago and oh my goodness, I adore her! 🙂 She’s a wonderfully sweet lady and I was thrilled to be asked to help her show off her fabulous new release! Here’s what I created using Hello Squeakheart!
I’ve been trying to practice my colored pencil coloring and I couldn’t resist coloring that hunk of cheese a few nights ago for the Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge.
And that kinda just set me up for the rest of my card! I stamped the cheese and mouse on grey cardstock with white pigment ink and then colored it with prismacolor pencils. I started by adding a layer of white colored pencil to the image and then went over it with the various colors. Adding white underneath helps the colors to pop on darker cardstock! I fussy cut my mouse and set him aside while I worked on the rest of the card!
Next I stamped the sentiment from Hello Squeakheart onto bright yellow cardstock with versamark and heat-embossed it with black detail embossing powder. I adhered the sentiment and my mouse to the card with foam mounting tape. Finally I finished the card with a few nuvo crystal drops in dandelion! Now I know cheddar cheese doesn’t typically have holes in it but shh…don’t tell anyone! 😉
If this is the first time you’re learning about Heffy Doodle stamps I definitely recommend heading over to check out her new release (and her first two releases). She’s got a bunch of adorable critters, cute sentiments, and great dies!

Such a cutie card and sentiment. Loved the colouring too!
Another release, can’t wait. Your little mouse is so adorable, you’ve coloured really well with those pencils x
Another superb card and so different. I just love the little mouse and the sentiment is just so right. To mount it on black card just shows off the design to perfection and I would be so chuffed to receive this amazing card. The colouring is great. Thank you for another great idea
Loving your talent for coloring. This set is too cute…..especially since I work at a Vermont handmade, artisan cheese company who’s history dates back to 1892. Just love cheesy puns.
Your card is so adorable! I love the darling little mouse!
I just love this card and the colouring. I love that the message ‘pops’ on the black card. These stamps are now on my wish list. Thank you I love it.
