I love this dog stamp from Viva Las Vegas stamps....he makes me laugh. Anyway.....The background of this is not dp per se....I stamped it using an argyle set from PTI...first I stamped the diamonds in red and then the dotted outline in black. The stamps are approx 2 rows so I had to stamp them several times. It was a bit time consuming but my MISTI helped. I really like how it turned out. BTW-I did stamp it on some off white slightly patterned paper from Prima (?)..I wanted it to have a vintage feel. The sentiment is hard to read..it says Born to be...Lucky. The rest is pretty much self explanatory. TFL!

You have the most interesting ephemera, Polly! Small playing cards! You can always add some interesting detail to a card and this one is no exception. Just love that dog and how you framed him out!

Wow, great job on your background. I don't know how I lived without it. I also love this stamp. My dad was a rated gambler in Vegas and he had the real picture hanging on the wall of his game room. Of course, I had to have the stamp. I love the card you make with this stamp. In my opinion you can just keep em comin, cuz I luv em.
