A blog devoted to the cards I make in my tiny upstairs space. When my sister stays there, she calls it an "artist's garret". I'm not an artist, but am an enthusiastic cardmaker - hence the title "Cardmaker's Garret".

A Dog with Bells

The Jingle Belles challenge wants "Bells" on our cards this time.

And The 12 Months of Christmas challenge is "Deck the Paws" - have a dog or a cat as the main focus.

I have a stamp that covers both challenges!


 I stamped and heat embossed the dog and sentiment, then masked it and added the stars through a stencil, using silver embossing paste.  I coloured the bells with a silver glitter pen and bordered the panel with silver cs and popped it up on the card base.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope everyone is doing okay.








Supplies:
Stamps - Creative Images
Ink - Versafine Onyx Black
Paper - white and silver cs
Size - A2
Accessories - clear embossing powder, Memory Box star stencil, silver embossing paste, silver glitter pen, fun foam

    You have the best stamps. Love that dog and love how you added the silver stars around him. I can see a playful pup having so much fun with those bells. Fun card!
