A Squirrel First

Morning all.  It would seem that yesterday's penguins didn't really float your boat as much as they did mine!  Sorry about that.

Here is a real soft and cutie for you today, and a first for me.  I cannot believe that I had never attempted a rocker card before now:



LOTV stamp - Big Hugs
Painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Sentiment from a Hero Arts set
Slightly lairy cardstock from anonymous heap in my stash
Lacy edged circle die - Grand Nestabilities
Normal circle dies - Nestabilities Classic Circles

I was making this as a thank you card anyway, so maybe fortune smiles on the brave because it is a Thank You theme over at Crafty Catz this week

Hugs to all
Squirrel xx

  1. The penguins floated my boat. I love it. Love this image but rocker cards don't float my boat though it does look pretty. Mind you I don't like these pop up boxes either, they don't seem like a proper card x

  3. I think it's GORGEOUS. I love these characters and this is my fave of the set. I see what I originally thought was acetate (cos I could see through it) was actually a punched edge. Wow, great punching, and I love the rocker shape. It makes a lovely change from the standard cards and is something you'd not get in a shop. Love how the colours match in the image too and it's perfectly balanced (some of my rocker cards have been a bit heavier on one side and therefore look a bit tipsy!). And stop being paranoid about the pingys, they were lovely. xx
