Guesting for the Critters!

Critters, critters, everywhere!  I'm so excited to be the Guest Designer over at a new challenge this month called 2 Crafty Critter Crazies!     WhooHoo!!!!!  We all love the little critters and make cards using them - so come on over and join the fun and enter the challenge.

The challenge is always Anything Goes as long as you feature some type of critter.  Yep, that's all it takes....critters!  This month our sponsor is a store I actually wasn't familiar with but I am now and they have so many wonderful images.  It's called Fabrika Fantasy.  Check it out! You'll be amazed!

Now, on to the card..........This is a Chipmunk!  I've never seen one in this part of Texas but am sure we have them somewhere.  Pretty fascinating little guys that remind me of a baby squirrel.  This one is just happy that springtime weather has finally arrived (although down his way, we're hot enough for summer now) and wants everyone to be happy.   I'm not going to bore you with all the details on what and how I did whatever, but will tell you some of the supplies I used for this.  The main image is pre-colored from Fabrika Fantasy and I added some birds from Lawn Fawn and Newtons Nook, a cloud die with embossing added, distress inks, a frame die from Mama Elephant, and a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

I do hope you'll check out 2 Crafty Critter Crazies challenge and enter your card.  

Thanks for stopping by............
Lynn

Just darling! I love chipmunks and I can send you down some if you'd like. We have plenty in our yard and surrounding area. The girls used to love to chase them. LOL I adore that scalloped, stitched frame and those precious little birds. Cute sentiment. All around terrific card. Enjoy your day.

Congrats for being the Guest Designer at the new challenge. Your card is very cute and the chipmunk too. Aleeza loves watching Alvin and the chipmunks and so do I and your card reminds me of the movie. The little birdies are cute too. And I like the sentiment sticking out of the card and the words are lovely.

Love,

Monica

I love this card, Lynn! The birds are so precious and I adore the dimension you did on them. Great frame - I need that die, too. I'm going to have to check out Mama Elephant dies. I don't think I'm familiar with them.
I appreciate you being our first Guest Designer at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies. Any time you'd like to join us permanently, just let me know. :-D
