I would even say that you could use all cardstock and the layers could be embossed. However this Hugs Happy Forest Friends has much more. In keeping of the forest idea, you know that I would head towards those Tree Rings from the Hybrid Embossing folder. Although the Happy Forest Friends patterned paper is from a full Suite of products. I have not gotten that one yet. Yes, we all have a budget! The sentiment is not from that suite either, it comes…
