A very happy Saturday to everyone and I hope that you have begun a wonderfully fun and exciting weekend! Our weather has finally become a bit more pleasant so I want to be outside and get so many things done...or at least supervise the completion of so many things! WINK!!
I made a card today JUST FOR FUN and have used the darling little LOTV Doggie Delight stamp from the Latest LOTV Stamp Launch - Here Come the Girls featuring Emma, Milly, Maisie and Friends. The base of the card and all double matting is Bazzill, the DP is from the Neighborhood Collection by Crate Paper, and all background panels are machine stitched. The image was colored with Copics adding a touch of Orange Peel Stickles to the flame and Liquid Applique to the cupcake before cutting the image out with triple square/scalloped Nesties. The sentiment is from the LOTV Stamp - Calendars which contains 2 larger calendar stamps that are wonderful for that special occasion and 4 perfect mini ones too! I have used one of the minis on this card and enclosed it within a small round metal frame. For the vertical I used a natural twine tied into a bow to dangle a cute doggy bone/bowl charm which was a gift from my sweet friend Gunilla. Finally I added dog and bone buttons to hold the twine in place.
On the first panel on the inside I made a gift card envelope with a computer-generated sentiment and another dog button. For the jotting panel I used a doghouse, a little doggie tied with twine, and a half chewed bone...this little doggie was not so happy about being tied so even chewed up the corner of the jotting spot...lolol
