Best wishes...

TGIF!

Every month, SN design team member Allison, hosts a Pen Pal card swap in the Friends of Sweet November Stamps Facebook group. The theme for August was 'critters' and since I made this card before the Fall Woodland digi release I instead used a couple of cuties from the Spring Woodland collection at Sweet November Stamps. I paired the squirrel from the Spring Woodland Squirrel, Cub and Raccoon set with the chipmunk from the Spring Woodland Chipmunk, Fox and Skunk set. I enlarged them both quite a bit and placed the squirrel atop the tree stump from the older Forest Stump and Hollow Log Background Builder set and then proceeded to color in the rest of the forest background by hand. All the green in the scene is a last hurrah to summer as I'm now all about coloring with lovely fall inspired hues. I don't know if my pen pal has received this card yet, but I hope it brings her a smile.

Have a great weekend!
