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?

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.
Friends are making cigar boxes, or i should say decorating them, in themes and several have been auctioned off for charity. I dont know how much $ they made tho.
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 .
love love love.....! I just purchased another bulldog stamp. I'll be sure to post here when I get some things made. I'm definitely doing the matchbox post it note holder. I'm really diggin the ornament too.
