I'M NUTS ABOUT YOU

Hey there, with Christmas behind us, it's time to start thinking about those Valentines!  This super sweet squirrel is from Whipper Snapper Designs and makes a perfect Valentine!  I've got a group of ladies coming in from out of town to take a couple classes with me down at Memories of Time...this will be the first class.  It's going to be so much fun!

The image was stamped with Tuxedo Black onto Neenah Solar White then colored with Copic markers.  The squirrel's nose has Sakura Clear Glaze pen for a nice, subtle shine.  I haven't used my glaze pen for a while, so it was fun digging it back out again!  The sentiment was computer generated and also colored with Copics.  The heart is a My Favorite Things die that was sponged, embossed then colored with Copics to darken the shadows...looks a little like a peanut shell, huh?  *grin*  A MFT button with twine completes the card.
