Just Sitting Here

It's Kim from Katydid Cards and it's my turn to post on Eyelet Outlet today!  Here's the card I made just because I wanted to use the adorable Squirrel Brads:



We have squirrels galore in our yard and, although many people consider them a nuisance, I really love to watch them.  The pose on this little fella is my favorite...when they sit up with their little paws holding an acorn.  I had this bench image which I thought would be a perfect place for Mr. Squirrel to sit.  I placed some greenery behind the bench for contrast, but the main attraction is certainly the Squirrel Brad.  Across the bottom, the greeting is typed using the AlwaysHere font.  Here's a closer look at the squirrel:



I matted the focal image on an oval of Cajun Craze and placed that on acorn patterned paper by Stampin' Up...not sure the name of the collection; it's old.  The card base is cut from Sahara Sand using a cut file purchased in the Silhouette store.

Inside the sentiment was typed using the same font on an oval with the bench off to the side as an accent and another squirrel.  I sponged the edges with Cajun Craze to finish.


And that does it!

Autumn Leaves

Today I had fun playing with vintage dictionary pages, gorgeous wide leaf washi tape, and some fun brads.

On my recent travels, I found a falling apart dictionary with beautiful crispy aged pages.  I love how the words show through the translucent Washi Tape.



I accented my design with beautiful leaf brads and a fun little squirrel.  I added some skinny glitter washi tape to finish this design.



I stamped my sentiment on the border of one of the aged dictionary pages.  


For my second card, I positioned the rest of the vintage dictionary page at the bottom and added Copper Glitter Washi Tape at the top.
