Feather, Fur and Fin @ Little Red Wagon

This week at

it's my turn to choose the challenge and I'm saying, "Feather, Fur and Fin" which means I want to see any animal or critter on your make.

This is what I did....

Another tag for the Christmas box.  The stamp is from The Cat's Pajamas, (who are no longer in business ): ).

"Feather, Fur and Fin" is a 2008 song by Danny Michel, who is from Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario.  It's a commentary, and cautionary tale on how we treat the environment.  To give you a sample, the chorus goes:  "Every little critter | with feather, fur & fin | cried to Mother Nature | to come back for them | for every piece of litter | for every little sin | She cried for all of them | feather, fur & fin."  There is an official video for the song on YouTube, but I found it quite frantic and visually hard to watch, so if you want to hear the song, I would suggest you do so however you listen to music.  Unfortunately, not much has changed since 2008 and so the song is still very relevant today.  Danny Michel has another protest-style song he released in April 2025 called "Northern Star" which very nicely captured how most Canadians were feeling at that time, as well as paying hommage to past protest songs and artists.  Song title is linked to the YouTube video is you'd like to experience it for yourself.

I'm So Sorry @ Little Red Wagon

This week at

it's Chrissy's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "I'm So Sorry" which means she wants to see those sympathy cards.

This is what I did....

I usually do sympathy cards in white and gray or similarly muted tones but fellow Girlfriend, Imke, once commented that she likes to make sympathy cards more colourful so I thought I'd give that a try, and imho, she's right, using colours on a sympathy cards absolutely works.

Flower digi is from Beccy's Place and the sentiment is from MFT.

O is for Outdoor @ Little Red Wagon

This week at

it's Imke's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "O is for Outdoor" which means she wants to see projects featuring all the places that aren't inside.

This is what I did.....

As you can see, I'm featuring the great outdoors with trees and snow.  And a twine bow that I'm definitely going to trim those unruly ends of before it gets used.  I should point out, that big splat there is most assuredly from a thrown snowball during the Bush League Bandits Annual Snowball Fight and not a deposit from some large bird......despite the fact that it looks like the deposit from some large bird.

Uptown Girl @ Little Red Wagon

This week at

it's Kate's turn to choose the challenge and continuing with Billy Joel songs with this week being "Uptown Girl" which means she wants to see those feminine cards with glam and/or fashion.

This is what I did....

I used a digi from SuzyFlowArt on Etsy.  Glammed it up with some bling.  I wasn't sure how I was going to do the sentiment until I was searching in my ribbon drawer and found this printed ribbon, something I kept from something it was around (I can't remember what).  I thought it could serve as the sentiment and that was that.
