Pet Sympathy

Just a simple little pet sympathy card today done as a consignment for a dear friend who owns a dog grooming shop to give to one of her clients.  The stamp is an old PSX stamp I found at a garage sale and the paw print is from SU - "D is for Dog".  Coloring dogs is a whole new ballgame - will have to keep practicing, but I'm sure the hand made card will be much appreciated by the client.

Christmas Kisses

Hi!  I'm back again with another of Michelle Perkett's fabulous digi images now available at Sparkle n Sprinkle!  Isn't she the cutest?  She is colored with Copics and has a little Sparkling Snow glitter on her wings.  The Mistletoe is a Silhouette die cut that has been glittered and embossed.  The branch is embossed with Christmas Green and the berries are rounded out with Dimensional Glue and sprinkled with Sparkling Snow.  The bow has been glittered with Collegiate Garnet.   It's never too early to get your Christmas cards done, so check out all the great Christmas images at the Sparkle N Sprinkle online store!
TFL!

Woofie Under the Tree

Sparkle N Sprinkle now has a new line of Digi images by Michelle Perkett! This one is called "Woofie under Tree in Box" and is perfect for all those dog lovers out there! The sentiments come with it and are just so unique!  I punched "Season's Slobbers" out with an ornament punch and used an internet clip art bone to trace over the "Wags and Wiggles" sentiment and cut out. You can find complete directions for this card here, but please check out all the other Michelle Perkett stamps and digis on the SNS online store.






Here's a little better view of the sentiment:

Hope you enjoyed!  Stay tuned for another digi by Michelle Perkett soon!

Sparkle N Sprinkle Christmas in July Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Christmas in July blog hop!  If you've arrived here by way of Angie's fabulous creations, you're in the right spot! If not, you may want to start at the beginning (the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog) so that you can become eligible to win one of five - yes, FIVE - great prizes from Sparkle N Sprinkle.
My first card is a Double Z fold card using Stampette set #443 Snow Family.  It is stamped on Vanilla cardstock and colored with Copics, then cut out with Spellbinders Beaded Ovals.  The glitter oval behind it is cut out with my Silhouette and Sticker paper, then glittered with Green Nugget.  The ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The Snow at the bottom of the oval is from Mudd Puddles and can also be purchased at Sparkle N Sprinkle.








The sentiment inside the card is embossed in Red Apple.  Complete directions for this card can be found here.











My second card is a Spring Card (like in jumpy, not the season!) using another Stampette set, #442 Christmas Basket.  It is also colored with Copics and the basket is touched up with Fall Leaves glitter.  The card folds flat for mailing and then "springs" up when taken out of the envelope.  I also like that it stands up like an easel card. Very unique!






Here is a view of the back:

Complete directions for this card can be found here.


Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to leave a comment so that you will be eligible to win one of the five fab prizes!  Then hop on over to Brenda's blog to see what our Divine Design Team Coordinator has in store for you!
