It's A Wrap!

Ooooooooooooooooooh, the wonderful thing about squirrels, is squirrels are wonderful things, their tops are made out of rubber and their bottoms are made out of springs ................ can you tell I'm feeling better today?  Not quite tiggertastic but getting there.  Still very snotty but hey, can't have everything!

I spotted this challenge over at READY TEDDY GO yesterday and was intrigued.  The theme is "It's A Wrap" with the idea of taking inspiration from packaging.  So this morning found me, tail upwards, with my whiskers in the grocery cupboard having a furtle about.  Well, I came out of there with so many ideas, and a few strange looks from Toad.  But it wasn't until I put the kettle on that I was whacked in the head with colour ......



Ingredients for my card are:
Stamped Image  Wild Rose Studio - Millie Baking
Sentiment  Ditto
Medium  Tim Holtz Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Papers  Dovecraft Back to Basics, Basic Grey Kraft
Extras  Epiphany Round 14 (but I fiddled and made them buttons)

Now then, you may have noticed the note at the top of my sidebar about a random comments candy between now and 23 March.  Well, in addition to that, I'm not so very far off the 100,000 hits now so ...... if you are the one to leave a comment on the magic number, there will be a little something for that person.  You will need to keep an eye on the hit counter to see if it is you - and if it is, email me and let me know!

Hugs, Sxx

Adorable card, but even better than the card is the fact that Squirrel is BACK! So very glad to read that you are feeling ever so much more like your usual bushy tailed self! Maybe not quite tiggertastic, but squirreltastic is even better!
