Critter and Critters!

   I have 2 DT cards today this is the first.

our 50th challenge

Anything Goes but

they MUST feature a critter

Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter featured...
We are sponsored this month by TNT Artspirations and they have generously
provided images to our DT to use on their inspiration projects.

My card today is a bit of fun and quite simple, as I thought she needed to be centre stage. I placed the files in my electronic digital cutter and print and cut. I then coloured the turtle with Distress inks. Layered all the papers, attached the 3 layers of turtle and a separate head, which you can't see here as I intended, oh! well. The sentiment I generated on the 'puter. 

Something seems to have gone wrong with my layout today, I've tried everything to get it symmetrical.


image - TNT Artspirational
inks - Distress inks mixture of greens and blues, abandoned coral, worn lipstick
papers - Cathy K Designs

I hope to see you at the Critter ATG Challenge.

I was out walking to the hairdresser this week and came across these bluebells, out with my phone and this is the result. Just gorgeous isn't it. Such a joy to see.


Also I have had this "critter" in my garden enjoying the nuts and
 maybe taking them to her babies?

These 3 tickled me pink, 3 pigeons fighting to have a bath. They did squeeze in.

That is a cute little turtle Faith! I bet you were glad to have gone to the hairdresser - and to have seen that beautiful display of bluebells is a bonus! Thanks for sharing your lovely photos. The pigeon bathtime made me laugh too and as for that other rare 'bird' with the bushy tail, does she not know that is BIRD food?! Vicky x

A cute little turtle card, Faith, I see nothing wrong - you've balanced him well! Oh, those pigeons remind me of all the critters in my neighborhood who just need some water. There's really not much of it out there naturally anymore unless we put it out! Good for you, getting out to the hair stylist. I'm a little jealous, XOX

A brilliant card Faith. Your photos are great! the pigeons make us laugh too. We had one do a 180 degree turn and knock his friend off the bird feeder earlier. Your squirrel looks very smart and I love the bluebell photos.
