From one furry friend to another.



Okay, you guessed it. I'm nuts for dog stamps at the moment. Where will it end? I don't know. What I do know is that they certainly come in handy when our furry friends want to be friends with other furry friends. It just makes card giving so much easier. This card is going to, well, I won't say here, but I'm sure it will be appreciated.

I used one of the stamps from the Carolyn King Collection offered by Gina K. Designs. And, of course, coloured it with the Copic/Ciao markers. I'm looking forward to a darker shade of brown for my dogs soon. I started with some kraft cardstock and added a layer of Mellow DP by Basic Grey. Then, I used the large Nestabilities scalloped circle and the second-largest regular circle. I purchased my Nestabilities from Scrappin' Great Deals and I'm lovin' them. I think the rectangles will be the next ones to get.
For the sentiment, I used the ticket punch by SU on the left side only and added a couple of square brads by MM. A few paw prints from Pink Cat Studio and a bone brad in the dogs mouth and called it done.

It's going out in the mail on Monday morning, so someone who reads my blog needs to watch for it.
