FF21UnderstandBlueB - Lydia asked us to make a card about Clarence, her pet squirrel.
I just received this squirrel stamp from ArtSpecially so even though I'm too late to be eligible for Falliday prizes, I thought I'd make this card anyway.
I stamped the squirrel on watercolour paper and then again on masking paper - fussy cut the mask and laid it over the squirrel on the watercolour paper. I then stamped the berry branches over the squirrel. Watercoloured, trimmed the panel, bordered with black, added to a cream card base, and went over the berries with Glossy Accents.
I'm sending it to my sister - she's moving and said one of the little things she'll miss (hence the sentiment) is the antics of the squirrels at her present house.

Oh, Susan, this is one of most Adorable squirrel images and card I've ever seen! Love the shiny berries and how Mr. squirrel is trying to hide in the thicket. So Cute~

Beautiful! The squirrel reminds me of the squirrels I saw today on "cat tv", LOL. (Yes, one of our felines has a penchant for it!). I love the feeling of winter your card evokes.
