A Very Cute Layout and Card

Hello! We have a treat today. Melania has a cute card for us and Anna is going to be a guest designer for us this month. I just love the projects that Anna has created for us this month. Be sure to check out her blog as well. It is full of amazing inspiration. For a little about Anna, please read below.

"Hello, I’m Anna, live in Saint-Petersburg, Russia, with my hubby, our daughter and cat. I’m very passionate about scrapbooking and cardmaking, it is really my great passion! This is my hobby since August 2011, when I made my first card. And since then, I still can not stop constantly making new discoveries in this wonderful world of creativity and improving my skills. I Like to create everything, but cards and layouts are on the top of my making list. I like to build fun scenes on cards, I like to create new scrapbook layouts to document our story life. I like bright clear colors in crafting, and of course sweet critters."

This layout by Anna is just adorable. I love how she stamped the sentiments from our Favorite Person stamp set repeatedly to create the background. The hedgehogs peaking out from behind the photo are so cute. It is the perfect frame for the image. I just love everything about this!
