Beavers, eh? (Neat and Tangled release week)

Hi there!

Welcome back to the second day of this month's Neat and Tangled release week! We're showing off a set that I illustrated, called Beavers Eh. The name of the set was a total joke that stuck. ha. A little Canadian fun.


I hope you will bea-ver-y excited about these beavers! (no? too much? maybe get a little dam excited? I could do this for awhile...)

My card features 2 of the 4 beavers included in the set. The boy beaver on the left has his hands outstretched to hold either the flower, or the fish, but I thought he looked like he could have his arm around his best gal.

I used the new Nesting Hexagons cover-plate (you'll see more of that one tomorrow) to add interest to the background, and Stitched Slopes to give the animals a ground to stand on.

Their long teeth are amazing. I had front teeth like that before braces. no joke. Also, the girl beaver's cheeks are almost pinchable.

I hope you like what you see so far! Be sure to leave a comment before you click over to the NT blog to see more of these Canadian-made cuties.
