Dog Daze

When I read that this week's Make My Monday theme was Pets, as always my mind leapt straight to cats. However I do seem to have made a LOT of cat themed cards recently, and I had this lovely doggy ribbon just begging (do you see what I did there? Begging.... dogs... oh, never mind) to be used. And  so was this lovely stamp from Little Claire's, which must be my most favourite doggy stamp ever. So dogs it is, then.

I found this lovely stripey paper in my stash, I think it came from Craftwork cards. It probably doesn't show on the photo but it has a very slightly pearlescent sheen on it, a great contrast to the heavy matte finish of the kraft card I was planning to use for matting, and used Promarkers to colour the dogs in to complement the paper and card.


Since I used lots of kraft card on this. I am also sharing with Use Your Stuff, where the current challenge is Kraft.
And I think this is my first ever visit to House of Stamps, where the theme is Who let The Dogs Out?

Cat themed cards are always good! But I have to say, you've made a lovely job of this doggy one too, Jx

I love this card Jane! And have the very same stamp (probably spotted on your blog a little while ago?), along with the cats one - plus duplicates as a Playground prize. Thanks for reminding me how super they look coloured up! The backing paper/card is perfect here.
