Nope I wasnÂ’t inspired by a raccoon image, didnÂ’t even see any on the site but I did see this bedspread and was quite fascinated with the look of the overstitching and thought it would work well in this layout for a simple masculine card and the grey color was perfect too.
Copic colors used for image: sky - B0000,91, C00,1 and blender, water – BG10,11,15,18, C2, rock – W7, C2,3,5, E95, raccoon – E31, W0,1,3,5, grass – G07,28,82, YR23
My overstitching effect was done with the Scor-Pal and a metal ball stylus.
The nailheads from Tetes de clous were attached with AleeneÂ’s Paper Glaze. They are supposed to be stickers however they never come off with the sticky goo or without it showing around the nailhead on the card.
The Stampin Up photo corner punch and Square Lattice embossing folder were used for the corner feature.

I'm not a fan of raccoons in real life (had one, no two in my attic once..scared the heck out of me) but I'm a fan of this card...love all the details!

One thing I love about the IC is that it takes our minds in such diverse places. That you can see a raccoon in this bedspread is a special treat for us all. Always enjoy your inspirations!
