Seize the Sketch #5: Squirrel!

on October 01, 2013

Happy October!!!

Hello and Welcome to Seize the Sketch #5!

Here's a sketch that has many possibilities, great for CAS girls and gals that love to layer!

It's actually based off of THIS CARD that I created earlier this year.

Our Super Sponsor for this challenge is

Timeless Twine

Up for grabs is 3 spools of Timeless Twine!

So for today's card I went with punny humor and CAS:

I used Timeless Twine

Kraft Brown

The stamps are a mix from the Sweet Stamp Shop, Easily Distracted & Furry Friends Forever.

Be sure to check out the Seize the Sketch blog to see how my teamies were inspired!

I say it CONSTANTLY! Not only do I love that movie BUT I also have an easily distracted personality, lol. ONE TIME I actually was talking to my mom on the balcony at her place, and it was an actual real true squirrel - that will forever live on as a great moment, lol :D

Hysterical, love it. We actually did have a squirrel moment a few years back. We were in Carnation and it snowed and the road was a blanket. We were slowly driving, and a squirrel ran out, stopped, looked and ran a few steps then stood up and looked at us gain.. as if he was trying to tell us to go the other way. weird. Of course as soon as he ran out Scott yells "SQUIRREL!!!" ha..I just laughed.
I missed this challenge last week... eeek I am slipping! I will make sure to play this week as I cannot forget this memorable card!!!
Cool Stuff Amy!
