Today I have a card to share that I made a few weeks ago. But then I had a flare up and went to the hospital, and just realized that I never posted it!!
My mom came across this cute/funny saying on an advertisement in a magazine, and she said it would be cute to put on a dog themed card! Here's the saying:
We decided to make a card for our neighbor, Jodi. She is also a card maker who makes amazing cards! Well, she has a poodle, so I wanted to make her a card that featured the same breed. Here is what I came up with:
I cut the poodle on my Cricut, and ran the body through the Divine Swirls embossing folder for added texture. I also added glossy accents on her little nose!
Here's a look at the finished card:
I popped both images up, but used thicker foam adhesive on the doggie, to make her appear oloser. I used some sparkle neon cording (found at Joanns) for the leash. The lady was cut from the Paper Dolls Teen Scene cartridge. Did you notice how low I accidently stamped her mouth? Ugh!! I could have cried!! I just can't do that stuff with my poor vision! I don't know why I even try. And of course, I stamped it after the image was completely put together. Some day, I swear, I will learn to stamp it first, so when I mess up, I can just recut that one part, and THEN assemble the entire image! Lol!
I also did not use any background paper because I didn't want to distract from the images. I'm happy with how it turned out. (Even with the stamping boo-boo!)
Let me know what you think! I love comments! Thanks for stopping by! Have a GREAT day!
"Don't glue anything I wouldn't glue!!"
That saying is hysterical. I really like that you used the Divine Swirls embossing folder to give the poodle texture. What a great card, I'm sure your neighbor loved it.
