Hello and welcome, the weather is really getting chilly. Some nights have been dipping down to the low 30's. UGH, I don't like cold weather. It's getting close to Halloween. I don't think I'm going to be making any Halloween cards this year.
But you never know I might get around to making one last minute. But I do have a card to share with you all today.
This one is a birthday card for my niece Tiffany.
The reason I made her this card is that she actually has a pet Racoon. His name is Puddles, she has raised him since he was a baby. He was found in a puddle of water in the middle of a road.
Even though the picture is blurry, here is a picture of puddles and one of his playmates.
Supplies used-
Racoon Image from Pinterest, Design Paper-Grateful Tree Farm,
C-stock-Brazzil (Wildberry pie), Neenah Bright White- which actually looks more off white, Stamp Set-S.U. Garden Birdhouses, Square stitched die, Cloud stitched die, Alcohol Markers-Spectrum Noir & Master's Touch. I also added some jute twine, I think it goes well with a nature scene.
Thanks for stopping by, Hope your day is full of smiles.

Hi there, what a sweet image and a lovely card - great colour choices and paper. Can't imagine having a racoon for a pet! Never had anything more exotic than a cat! Thanks for joining in with us this week at Passion for Markers, Sarah - DT.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card you made your for niece! Love the DSP and all the colors! Her Puddles is so cute! I can't imagine having one for a pet but it looks like it works for her. We have had gorgeous weather here. Today was 82 and tomorrow will be 77. Love it!!
