The July challenge in the Calendar Girls blog group was a fun one, selected by our Miss July, Michelle. I didn't get it made! And now, the end of September, I am just now doing so. EEK! I am sooooooooooooo sorry, Michelle!!! I hope you understand and will forgive my tardiness!!!
Michelle's theme was a Free for all - anything goes - but with one catch!
Our cards were to be created with anything EXCEPT a stamped image. We could use punch art, stickers, embellishments, patterned paper, whatever we chose... just NO stamped image.
Easy! I knew immediately that I would use punch art! I love punch art!!!
Fast forward to September. My daughter Brittney moved in August and now has two roomates and a petmate, too. I've mailed Brittney several cards over the years, and now her roomates admire them, too. Kacee, the petmate's owner, told Brittney she wanted me to make her a card with a black dog on it. Sooooooo, my punch art card features a black dog.
What's not to love about this face???
I didn't originally plan to make an easel card, but it just kind of evolved.
The dog's ears fold in making it easy to mail this card in a normal square envelope.
Ruff! Ruff!
I hope my doggie card wins first place in the dog show! Oh, and I hope Michelle likes it, too, since it was my July Calendar Girl Anything Goes card!
And I hope Kacee likes it - I'll be mailing it to her! (Do you think it will remind her of her dog Diesel?)
And I hope Brittney thinks I did okay creating this card for her roomate.
It's been fun!
Cardstock: Stampin' UP! Real Red and scraps from my scrap file
Designer Paper: Reminisce Good Dog (double-sided)
Embellishments: black brads
