Happy Bark.Day

Hi, this is my second post for  today. For my A Day For Daisies post please scroll down. :)

I'm so excited that I finally get to play with Paper Smooches "Birthday Buddies" set. I love animal stamps and I've been eyeing this set when it first came out. So happy to get my hands on this cute set.

For my card, I was inspired by Practicing Creativity Sketch Challenge. I decided to add a little heart banners on the top to make the card looks more festive & fun. The yummy yellow twine is Lemondrop twine from The Twinery. Another favorite.  I am also entering this card for Simon Says Stamp "Anything Goes" challenge.


To create a little dimension on the doggy, after I fussy cut the image, I curled it around my markers. When you lay the image you can see where some parts can be glued directly to the card, and some parts can be adhered using thick and thin pop-dots to create different dimension level. 

I hope this make sense. Using this technique I've been able to create more depth on my image. Next time I'll try to take pic of the process. :)  For example, on the card above, the paws were glued using regular glue directly to the panel, the body was popped on thick pop-dots and the nose and ears on thin pop-dots.

This card makes me smile and I hope you have a smiley kind of day as well.
