I have two birthdays in May for young kids, both of whom are dog fans. Two challenges are looking for animal related (or specifically dogs): Time Out with a great inspiration photo (see below,) and The Paper Players: Animal Antics. I have two new sets of stamps from My Favorite Things that I picked up during one of their sales. This is the first card with one of the stamp sets. I’ll be back in a day or two with a second card with a more feminine touch.
I stamped the images from the My Favorite Things Hot Dog stamp set and then die cut them with my Scan N Cut. I had a lot of fun coloring them in shades of brown with Copic markers. The three circles were die cut with Simon Says Stitched Circles-two white and one dark brown. Before adding them to the card, I embossed the front of the card with a Stampin’ Up embossing folder. I purchased it from eBay and I don’t have the name of it anymore.
Next, I arranged the pups on the card. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and was white embossed on strip of the same dark brown cardstock. I added three enamel dots to finish it off. This card is also going to NBUS since this is the dogs’ debut!
Such a cute card. Your dog loving birthday folks will enjoy such cheerful messages of birthday wishes.
Aww this is such a cute card, Karen! I love everything about this card.. the layout, embossed background and then this cute dog. Thank you so much for playing with us at Time Out. Hugsxx Deepti
The perfect card for anyone who loves dogs Karen! I love how you coloured your sweet pups and arranged them over the circle background. Vicky x
Love the fun sediment and doggie design, Karen! (I’m a big fan of mini-doxies!) Your coloring, the circle spotlights, and the ‘fence’ e/f are perfect! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
