Cute Squirrel - 'i'm Nuts About You!' Step by StepCompleted by Karen Faulds

I cut out the main image to make a topper and all the other elements were cut out and shaped, including the individual leaves.

I matted a selfmade backing paper (made from shades of green moonglow starburst stains) onto a brown card and attached the main image using DSTafter inking the edges with distress ink to soften them a little.

I built up the layers using Pinflair and finally added the leaves randomly around the edge again using Pinflair.
