This is a card I made using the Create a Critter 2 card.  The squirrel is so cute with his little hat!.  I added the icon (which is a tree), but I chopped off the trunk and just used the branches.  I found these cool leaves at Michaels to add some dimension.  Then I just had to put the little guy on an Action Wobble!

Have a Beary Little Christmas

This cute little bear is cut from the Teddy Bear Parade Lite cartridge.   This is the cutest cartridge, if you don't have it yet, you really should pick it up!  I blocked the face using my trusty Gypsy and stamped it using PK stamps.

The Christmas tree is from Create a Critter (another adorable cartridge)  I added some candy canes (confetti) to decorate the tree and some ribbon and buttons to finish it off.

 For the inside, I used two stamps.  The first one said Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas.  I blocked the Merry when inking the Staz on and then used beary from PK SOTM.  I then embossed in red embossing powder.  I added a little holly also to finish it off.
