Just Jingle: Faithful Friends

2.07.2014

If you have a dog, it is likely you are aware of how much they add to your life. They are part of the family. Creating a card like this one is usually too hard for me when it is actually needed, so I made this one so I could have one on hand if and when I do need to send this particular sentiment out to a friend. I used the super wonderful Paws for a Cause stamp set from Paper Smooches (a portion of the proceeds are donated to A Home For Good Dog Rescue) and the Teresa Collins You Are My Happy 6x6 papers that I love so much!

I kept my design fairly simple, but sweet. I stamped and fussy cut the puppy and popped him up with some thinner foam circles for just a bit of dimension. The enamel hearts are from Lily Bee Design. They matched the papers so perfectly!!! I love it when that happens!

I am linking this one up to the Paper Smooches Sparks Anything Goes Challenge this week. I like this one. It's like a hug in card form. *grin*

Have a Happy!!!

oh, this is amazing! of course the cause is not "fun", but the card is absolutely stunning! I really love the placement and angle of your paper strips on top and bottom of your card and the enamel hearts.
It's just that what makes a great card: the details! And you did a perfect job, here! :)

Jingle, LOVE those tiny angles of paper at the top of your card!! Such a great touch to fill the space, but still end up with a TON of white space. Great design!

What a sweet card and a nice gesture. Such a sad occasion though.

I am never going to throw a scrap of paper out again - those little bits at the top are perfection!

Thank you for visiting! I love to hear your thoughts!
