Etsy Inspired Snail

(Click HERE for my Sweet Stampin GDT post)

This wee card was inspired by the Etsy Inspired challenge this week ... look at these cute minatures! I find crochet tough enough without doing it on that scale!

This little snail is another oldie from my stash, but I think I might change his 'face' into a smile, he looks a bit sad! I hadn't intended to have a seagull in the middle of my cloud, but I smudged some ink on it that then needed disguised! Added clear gloss to his popped up shell and to the balloon.
