I just finished designing this. This contains two frames, one for the tree trunk, and one for the ivy, and then the raccoon head. You can use this as a card topper or you can use it as a cut-away. I like the tree trunk as a cutaway and the ivy as a frame on top. I am going to test cut this out today but wanted to see what you might think about this design. I got a request for a raccoon design a few weeks back and I am just now finishing this design. I worked on this while I was updating my website. I first started this design with the raccoon siticking his head out of a rotten log but then I changed it to a tree trunk. My question is, is the tree trunk design realistic. I put the outline of the tree in the design initially, but then I just decided I would design just the hole in the tree so I could give more emphasis on the raccoon. Did I make the right decision? I just posted this on Etsy. It cut out great for me.
That is really cute, I differently would use it as a card front for a Halloween scene.

I'm going to send this raccoon design to a friend of mine with a caption like in a comic book saying "Did it finally stop snowing!".

I really really like the raccoon in the tree...I was thinking maybe removing the leaves at the bottom to see what that would look like??? But it really is a great design!

Your raccoon is adorable! Love how he is peeking out of the tree. It is very realistic.
