Default I need an idea for pet charity

I want to make something to auction off for english bulldog rescue. I have a great stamp of an english bulldog, like just the head, its really cute. It's about 3" x 3". I would like to offer something clever or unique, maybe not just a card. any ideas?

Is it big enough that you could stamp on ceramic tiles to make coasters? note card sets they could auction off?

How about getting some small kraft lunch sacks, stamp the bulldog head on the front. Fill with some Milk Bones. Punch a couple of holes in the top and tie a bow with heavy twine, or maybe red ribbon.

You could make a cute little sign to sit by the bags, and explain they are doggie treat sacks.

Since they are simple, you could make a whole bunch and line them up!

How about calendars using coasters or CD cases, Post It Note holders, Purses, Treat holders, boxes. How about making up a small basket and putting a bunch of stuff in it. I've seen where you can get a cookie cutter in the shape of a bone with a recipe to make the biscuits. You could put together the ingredients to make the treat. Do a tag with the bull dog to go with it.

How about turning the stamped image on the front of the card into a fridge magnet? Stampbord, or mountboard makes a good base for that. Stamp the image, add some magnetic photopaper to the back, coat with a couple of layers of clear embossing and then add to the card with repositionable glue dots. I did this with a card for my son, HERE .
