Hello peeps, Squirrel popping in again
I've not made many Christmas cards yet this year, normally I would have started in June, so panic mode is setting in a little bit
Lovely things used

Strike Up The Band
Hello peeps, Saturday Squirrel here today
The inspiration for today's card was actually a commission - a friend requested a card for her brother-in-law who is a musician. Well, there was only one stamp set that I could possibly use for that!
I adore these bunnies, they make me happy
Ingredients
Red card from own stash

The Walrus, The Polar Bear, And The Penguin
Hello peeps, Squirrel here today - sorry I was MIA last week, I was laid low by a rather unpleasant bug.
Anyhoo, today's offering reminds me of a joke
A penguin walks into a pub. He goes to the bar and says to the landlord
"Have you seen my brother?"
The landlord looks at him, scratches his head, thinks for a minute, and asks
"I'm not sure, what does he look like?"
Sooooooooo, on to today's make then
And the lovely things used are
Hmmmm, I've not had a Penguin in ages, but I know where there is a stash of dark mint Kit-Kat

Sweet Birthday Wishes
Hello peeps, Squirrel here on this rather warm weekend.
Rosie (my cat) has a boyfriend (Meep) and it was his human's birthday this past week.
Rosie told me what to make.
Now, the little kitty came from the BB New Best Friend set (which is no longer on the website) but there are loads of stamp sets with small cats that would work equally well.
Have a super weekend - don't forget the cream if you're out in the sun (we're not used to it!)

And the things I have used are:
I hope that whatever you are doing today it involves keeping warm and lots of crafting!

Long Time No See
Morning all, Squirrel here today
Now that we are in to September, my crafty mind has gone into panic Christmas mode.
Why do I always leave it so late?!
I crocheted the husband a bobble hat earlier in the year. Despite careful measurements it came up rather large, it will certainly keep his ears warm, and probably his knees as well - a bit like this one.
Do penguins have knees?

Mermazing
Morning all, Squirrel here today.
With all the hot weather we have had lately, I could really do with a paddling pool for dabbling my hot and sticky paws in, but I'm not a swimmer so this is unlikely to be me ...........
Ingredients used:
The closest I'll get to being a mermaid is in a deep bath!

All The Cupcakes
Morning all, Squirrel here, and officially another year older than I was last week!
Let's face it, it doesn't matter how old you are, there is no better way to celebrate a birthday than with a great big cake (or lots of smaller cakes).
And the lovely things used for this are:
MFT DieNamics - Stitched CU Comp Vertical MFT-767
(I used the cover up die cut as a stencil for my background inking)
Vertical die has gone from website now, but the Horizonal one MFT-768 is still available

Margarita Time
Hello everyone, Squirrel here this morning, hope you are all keeping safe and well.
In these difficult times, I wouldn't mind betting that people are drinking
more at home, if I did drink then I think I would have the odd glass too but these
days booze makes me fall over, so the strongest you will see me with is a
weak lager shandy on a hot summer's day!

Harvest Mouse
Yes, it's Squirrel, sorry about last week's hiccup, but I am back now.
Some weeks I have a struggle choosing what to use, I must have bought THOUSANDS of stamp sets from Dies To Die For over the years, so this week I had a little rummage through the slightly older, but still available, sets to see what I could find.
Who cares that it's not autumn yet, no one knows for certain what day/week it is!
And the lovely things used
For details on the colourwork, and a longer ramble, pop over to my blog
Hugs to all

Green Pastures
Hello peeps, Squirrel in the house today.
It is Saturday, isn't it, I think it is, surely it must be.
I have no words. I am slowly going insane.
Which actually explains a lot.
So, all the things I have used are:
I'm off to rock gently in a corner until next week.

Tumbleblossom #9
Hello everyone, Squirrel here this morning.
Now, over here in the east, we have a little phase for running late, and it is "I'm all behind". Well, yes, I am, and with all this lockdown snacking I am rapidly heading that way in other departments too!
So, for today's make. I thought I may have bitten off more than I could chew when this stamp arrived but, honestly, once I got started with the colours it was a joy to work with.
So I have used
