Today's Featured Stamper is IMAMUTTNUT, and what a great gallery she has! I chose this Fifth Avenue Thank You card. I kept the same basic layout, diagonal image, and also an oval sentiment. I changed the image, paper, ribbon, and color combo.
This card is for my sweet friend, Lisa (StampilyEverAfter) who had to say goodbye to her furry baby, Bandit, that she'd had for 15 years. She says Bandit is chasing the slow running squirrels in heaven. So I used my little iron squirrel next to the card in the photo. I use this squirrel to prop up my cards when taking photos...so he's in my gallery a lot, but you usually can't see him. I thought Bandit might like it.

Agh...little hard to comment after reading this touching example of friendship. Creating such a beauty to honor Bandit is a beautiful thing. Slow squirrels..bless your heart!
Psst...your card is lovely too, just like your heart!
