Party Dogs

Published by Julia Stainton at 9:40 am under Card Designs

I made this fun little card yesterday. I came across some darling little My Favorite Things stamps I had and noticed the little dress just matched a scrap of MME paper that I had on my desk. How fun! So of course, I just had to make something. I love the fun look of these party dogs ….the set is called “Let’s take a Walk” and it can be purchased here. The set is made from clear acylic and it is so easy to use!

The imge was stamped with black ink and then watercolored with my SU inks, pressed into the lid of the inkpad. The black striped ribbon is by May Arts and I bought mine from Sweet Miss Daisy. The brown flower is from the gorgeous Prima Essentials Romance collection and was purchased from Jacksonbelle. The bottom of the card is stitched on my sewing machine for a little added interest and the sentiment is from the same My Favorite Things set and is embossed with black embossing powder.

Hope you are having a fabulous day!

    I just love this card! Those pooches look like they are on a serious mission. Of course I love the dotted bg paper. You alway do such a wonderful job embellishing your cards. You inspire me to crank the ole sewing machine up and start adding real stitches to my cards. Thanks for sharing such great ideas!!

    A little birdie told me its your birthday!! Happiest of birthdays!
    I love the my favourite things stamp you featured and am waiting for warmer weather before I order their stamps as I live in Canada and its still cold here and I don’t want the stamps to freeze in transit. Have a great weekend, Julia!

    I love the card! You’re right, that patterned paper matches perfectly. I love the little party hats on top of the dogs.
