LIM30 - Critters on Parade

HELLO?!  How cute is that little squirrel?  He and his friends decided to play this week with the current Less is More Challenge Recipe of using a combination of 3 previous challenges to make a clean and simple card.
I had so much fun with the ink challenge (LIM28) recently that I decided to do another variation of it.  Take a piece of computer paper that is the same size as your cardfront and cut a square out with a Nestabilities die.  You can then get perfectly sponged squares in no time flat.
a•muse|studio Wheat cardstock with wheat ink give a great monochromatic look that goes with the LIM Monochromatic Challenge (LIM18) and LIM Pastel Colors Challenge (LIM5).
 All these furry friends work for the LIM Things That Move Challenge (LIM29).
Friends Fur-ever is one of my favorite sets in the a•muse|studio 2011 catalog.  6 animals, 8 sentiments and 5 foliage stamps!!
If you want to make critter cards of your own all supplies are available through my a•muse|studio online store.
