One of my favorite card designers, Emily Leiphart, is having a “Squirrel Fest” over at her site and of course I had to play along! The rules are to make a card with a squirrel on it. I did a sort of winter/Christmas theme for this card:
This squirrel is extra happy because he has an acorn in his stocking! I did a watercolored winter background. Then made a “snowy” embossed glitter hill for him to sit on. The acorns are sugared up with Distress glitter, and the stocking has some stickles to make it extra sparkly. Doesn’t that squirrel just look so happy!
I wish we could all be so happy this Christmas season!
Also linking up over at the Paper Smooches Anything Goes challenge:
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Paper Smooches “Fanciful Fall” and “Merry Motifs”

May your days be filled with sunshine,
