My hair is possessed. Seriously! We left the house this morning with me looking all neat and tidy with a nice shine, and after ten minutes on the North Norfolk coast I looked like I'd been in a tumble drier on the hot cycle for an hour. There I was thinking people were just being really friendly and smiley but, in retrospect, they were probably tiddling themselves laughing at the fluffy apparition! Never mind, it stayed dry for us and we had a super day. We even managed to sneak in an hour at Sheringham so Toad could see the steam train and I had the most amazing hot chocolate, complete with cream and a Flake. Whoo!
Anyhoo, this week's challenge from Lili's Little Fairies is One For The Boys, and being a perverse Squirrel, I love boys cards. I had been itching to use this stamp so it has been a happy day all round.
Can I just say that if all you are seeing are blank squares instead of pictures, if you right click on the square and then open the image in a new tab, you should be able to see the picture. This seems to be an issue with Google Chrome at the moment and I can't figure it out, but I am seeing blank squares all over blogland!

Squirrel you do make me laugh. Glad you had a lovely time over the borde here. I posted my LOTV card just after you so had to hop over. I love making boy's cards too. Yours is fab.
Pictures look fine here. Fabulous boys card. Great image.

You know squirrels are having a good time when their tails are crackly and rather zapped-by-lightning - they're full of energy and spirit, that's what fluffs their tails! Zing! LOL
Charming boy card today... and I see that "Distress Markers" in your recipe today. I have no doubt you'll master the challenge eventually. =) Enjoy all the practice on your holiday!
Mwah, Beanie
Well no wonder you've been dying to ink this one up! I didn't know that Squirrel's ever had bad hair days!? Figured that your tail was always sleek, shinny and with just the right amount of fluff! Glad you had such a super day.

What a fun, fun image! I broke down and ordered some more LOTV stamps during their jubilee special. I got several sheets of sentiments because I really was feeling left out without those. The few image stamps I got were pirate ones, but I was very tempted by this one. Some day!
Gorgeous card Squirrel - I love doing 'boys' cards too! These stamps are just fab!
Love the layout and the wood effect paper too!

I love making boys and mens cards too, perhaps because I have 4 brothers and a few nephews LOL.
I would love to produce a card like this, love it all, as I have said before no need to say anything about your fab colouring :)
I can see pics just fine hun. Love this card, must have taken ages and its well worth it! Gorgeous. xxx
Brilliant card Squirrel and yet more fab colouring! I'm smiling at the idea of a fluffy headed Squirrel ... I often have trouble keeping my barnet in order too lol!
