Welcome to the end of the week. The weekend is just over the horizon and that means it's time for another challenge at QKR Stampede. Our fun theme this week is "Midnight Snacking" and you can pretty much define that any way you like as long as it relates to some kind of food or snack. There were so many fun images available at QKR Stampede for this one but I wanted to try coloring a cute raccoon, a new critter that I've not colored before.
Do raccoons have light tummies or dark? Or is their tummy striped like their tail? Is their face light with a dark mask or dark with a light mask? And most important for my card and sentiment, do raccoons celebrate Thanksgiving? This image is Digi 2424263, "Thieving Raccoon." Personally, I think raccoons probably celebrate anything that has to do with food.
They were certainly celebrating the leftovers of my garden this week. :-D Two immature, late-setting watermelons, a zucchini, a few carrots, four or five cherry tomatoes, and three ears of corn! Still, I don't begrudge any of them -- I'm just grateful to have had a well-producing garden this year. I really missed having one last year but there was no time to get one in due to all the landscaping that was going in at my new house all that spring and most of the summer.
I colored the image with ProMarkers and then die cut it with a die from QuicKutz. The sentiment is printed and also cut with a die from that same set. The dp for the background came from scraps in my stash and the three little leaves were punched from bits of scraps. The ribbons and cord were left over pieces and I tied the bow by hand, layering the ribbons and cord together before using my Craft-Dee Bowz to tie them.

I want to wish you a happy weekend, and I hope your weather is great - whatever it might be. Come play with us this week. You don't have to use a QKR image but if you don't have anything in your collection that will work as a 'snack' image, head over to the QKR Stampede store, scroll down to digi images (for quick delivery), find something you love (that won't be hard!), and come play with us. Remember, using a QKR image (digi or rubber) means that you are entered into a special category just for QKR users and that increases your chance of winning by a huge amount. :-D See you at the challenge. Happy Stamping. NanaConnie

I used colors from the Tuesday Color challenge at The Outlawz.
