Happy Birthday Squirrel

Hi there,

it's Tanja here today and I am featuring the super cute Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Fall! stamp set:

• cut out a tag and stamp the adorable squirrel from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Fall stamp set with Versafine (Vintage Sepia)
• mask the squirrel and create a background using Distress Inks (Antique Linen, Frayed Burlap, Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean) and the Hero Arts Cloudy stencil
• ink up the edges of the tag with Distress Ink (Frayed Burlap)
• color the image with Prismacolor Colored Pencils, Zest-it and a white gel pen
• add Glossy Accents to his nose
• stamp some of the notes from the new stamp set with Versafine (Onyx Black)
• thread natural jute twine through the hole of the tag
• cut out three washi tape strips and patterned paper
• stamp a Linen Background with Distress Ink (Frayed Burlap) onto a stitched kraft panel
• stamp the "happy birthday" sentiment with Memento Luxe (Rich Cocoa)
• use kraft cardstock as a base

Don't you just love this cute little fellow?

I hope you got inspired.

Yours,
