This is for George our destination this week. He is very ill and his great friend Philsmom wants to send him a little teapotter love.
I don't have any Jack Russell stamps but I got this adorable stamp set from CTMH for my birthday and this is the first card I have made with him. I've inked him but never carried it through to a finished project. A very good friend gave this to me.
I cut a window with a nestie. Put paper behind it. Cut out my dog, Charlie and popped him up with dimensionals. He was stamped in Momento and colored with Copics. I paper pieced his little collar. In the picture you can't see the sentiment on the outside very well. It says " Wishing you a doggone good day. " Inside it says " I'm praying for you." I used a retired SU paper, Really Rust. This was a fun card to make. I have been doing just Christmas so this was a good break and I like how it turned out.
Thanks for looking and hope you like Charlie.

Terrific card, I really love how you created the window and added the neat background paper and popped up the image of the cute dog. Love the thought bubble too.
