As most of you know, I love dogs. And I'm a very keen gardener. So today has a post featuring each.
For the My Time to Craft Challenge, the theme is dogs and / or cats. I did a very CAS card that I will use as a Christmas card for a dog-loving friend.
The dog and sentiment are heat embossed with a champagne coloured embossing powder. It's bordered with red and green glitter cs.For the Flower Challenge "Use a Die", I went more mixed media.
I created a gelli plate background with acrylic paints, die cut a flower twice and glued them together for dimension, and also die cut a sentiment. I added gold Stickles to the centres of the flowers.
Supplies for card 1:

Supplies for card 2:

ReplyDeleteThat is the sweetest face on the dog wrapped in his scarf. Love the glitter shine. A beautiful gel plate background and pretty die cut flower.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great dog stamp, Susan! Looks a bit like Tessa. And I love your gel background with the pretty die cut flowers!
