A Cute Rodent?
Why yes, they are quite cute! Squirrels are fun to watch. Their personalities shine when they chase each other, bury things, fight-- all with boundless energy and enthusiasm... Hmm... Sounds quite like my two boys!
All kidding aside, here's another clean and graphic, easily mailable card for the veterinarian mama-to-be, I hope it makes her smile as it does me! The squirrel is paper pieced in a woodgrain pattern, the twine represents grass and I just love those hoopy loopy half circles to make him look like he's on the go. I based the design of this card off this sketch from Amy Heller, I'm seriously amazed at her skills. Moxie Fab World is also having a Card Creations Challenge week, I'm entering this one into the Thank You Category.
