My Auntie is continually spoiling me. Not only with goodies, but with inspiration as well. She showed me a card that she made using the skunk from Create a Critter. The skunk was purple! I love purple and thought it was the cutest card. She then brings out a package of tiny purple bows and gives them to me along with red paper with white polka-dots. I have been looking for this paper for years! (Perfect for Minnie Mouse!) So I made her a Minnie with the paper (finally Minnie is wearing the proper clothes!) and made this card to send to her. This card is really out of the box for me. But I wanted to stretch myself and use some of the ideas that she's taught me. My aunt always uses the best patterned paper. Her colors always coordinate really well. Mine aren't perfect, but I think it's a step in the right direction. :-) The beaver is from Create a Critter and the paw prints are a EK boarder punch. The ribbon is from Michael's dollar bin. The flower that the beaver is holding is a button. I threaded yellow embroidery thread through it. And the beaver is wearing one of the lovely bows that my Aunt got me. I hope she likes it!
