Happy Groundhog's Day!

Shadow or no shadow....that is the question! I'm sure I won't hear the answer that I'm hoping for. In case you're wondering why in the world I've made a card for Groundhog's Day, it's because I live a little over an hour from Punxytawney - home of the famous prognosticator, Phil. I make a card for my dad every year because groundhogs are his nemesis - he's needed to make countless repairs to wiring in his car because the varmits love to chew the wires. This year's card wished him 6 more weeks of unchewed wires!



I found this image from Shirley's 2 Girls last year and was so excited to finally ink it up!

Stamps - Groundhog (Shirley's 2 Girls)
Ink - Tuxedo Black (Memento); Copics
Paper - white, Pure Poppy (PTI), Old Olive (SU!); pattern paper (My Minds Eye)

How cute!! I just love this groundhog, I need one to bring home with me! Your poor dad! My dad is the same way with squirrels, he can't stand them, calls them rats with tails. They terrorize his gardening plans!
