My first Wall Hanging!! Lovin' all the de'tails', for MMSC #20,



Where has the time gone?  Another week and here we are back with another Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.  This week I did not do a card but instead did a wall hanging.  I really like this Squirrel stamp by DSR designs and I also used another stamp for the branches for the focal point of the Wall Hanging.   The Wall hanging has a black ribbon to hang it up with and a black tassel on the bottom.  I sure wish I recalled which photo I sent Priscilla on this hanging, I wonder if we will be showcasing the same one!  I am very pleased with the end product, it is very nice and it was very easy to make it into a Wall Hanging verses a card, do I see more of those in my future?



I used markers to color in the imagines, and used dry embossing folders for the grass below the branches and some blue chalk for the Sky.  I then did some layering to follow the sketch and added some embellishments of brads, ribbon and a buckle.  

Anyways this is my weekly Midnight Madness Sketch card using this stamp from our Sponsor, D-R-S Designs, they are offering a $50.00 gift certificate. They will be sponsoring Midnight Madness all month and so you will be able to see even more great cards from the Design Team featuring stamps from D-R-S Designs.

Thank you for visiting my blog, I appreciate your visit.   I hope you have a great day/evening.   ~~ Jane

  1. Jane this is such a cute card. Your little squirrel reminds me of all of the squirrels in my back yard that are preparing for winter! I love all of your fine details, from the embossed grass to the small beaded flowers on the branch. Just a lovely card and so well done.

  2. Wooohooo Jane, this wall hanging is gorgeous! I thought it was a card on the MM site, but now I see that beautiful ribbon and tassel and reading about it...it's a wall hanging! The colors you chose are really perfect for this time of year and the little squirrel image is just too precious. This will look stunning on someone's wall! Just beautiful!
