Vintage German Cut Sympathy

Good Morning Ladies,
I am off this morning to go work the dog show. Should be a pleasant day of friends, dogs, and fun!
The card for today is Vintage German Cut Sympathy

This card was inspired by the Vintage German Embossed Cut of the boy and his dog image. The first layer he sits on is blue cardstock run through the big shot in a square paw print embossing folder. The next layer is a paw print paper from TPS. The sentiment is from Dog Stamps Plus cut with a heart die from Sizzix.

Good Morning Ladies,
I keep making spring like cards but the weather is not coming along with my ideas. Come on universe I am sending a message! LOL
The card for today is FSJ Vintage Rabbit

This card was inspired by the journey challenge spring and add something from your stash. All stamps and the flower were created using FSJ product. The damask stamp was included in the starter kit and this is the first time I used it. It made a great background paper. The bunny was stamped on Bristol paper and colorized using watercolor crayons. The flower was stamped and then die cut twice. The layers were curled in opposite directions and then popped together. The lace and washi tape are from my stash.

FSJ Bunny Pop

Good Morning Ladies,
I was cold all night. I think it was the damp weather yesterday that chilled me to the bone. I am up and moving and am feeling much warmer this morning.
The card for today is FSJ Bunny Pop

All the products used to create this card are from FSJ (fun stampers journey). The easter eggs and bunny are hand cut. The bunny was stamped twice and his head was cut as a single piece to create a pop up head. The banner was cut twice and was off set and popped up. The flower is 3 layers of dies cut with the edges curled. A ball stylus was used to create the cup portion of the flower. Glitter was added to the center of the flower.

Basset Hound Floral

Good Morning Ladies,
My dogs are learning how to use the dog door that has been closed up for many years. It was put in and then discovered that the house cat could work the door. So since he is gone we can now use it.

The basset hound image was the inspiration for this card. He was stamped on Bristol paper with Archival ink in the color of potting soil. He was then hand cut. The tan panel was cut to size and stamped in Archival ink potting soil. The images are from a CTMH clear set. These images were stamped randomly. The flowers and vines were then colorized with watercolor crayons. This panel was mounted on dark brown card stock. A paw print ribbon was run down the side of the card. The sun image is from Sunday International. He was stamped with a multi color ink pad. The is a two step stamped image.

I had a busy weekend. It was just what I need. To get out and about lightened my mood.

I know I am lacking baby cards up at the Co-op Shoppes in my booth. So I have been working on those. This card is just that a baby card for a girl. The bunny image is from Whimsy Stamps.

The snow passed us by last night. That is a good thing. I had a pretty busy day yesterday. First the water pipes froze behind my washer. They did thaw. Then I went to the NAPA trade show. Then off to dinner.

Once again I love the Fun Stampers Journey pocket card die. It is a fun and interactive die. This time I chose to use the dog and cat set from Fun Stampers Journey. All pieces were stamped on watercolor paper in licorice and then hand cut. The background paper is also from a Fun Stampers Journey pack. The banner die is also from Fun Stampers Journey.

This is the insert in the first pocket.
