Happy Dog

Hello Nomad friends.  Over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity we are feeling all Bright and Cheerful this month, so as long as it has stamping, is bright and makes you happy you can link it up!!   I decided to do some scrappy stamping and fussy cut this happy Pokey Dog to get my brights.

 
 
My pink panel is an old piece of 49th and Market patterned card.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs Round Shadow Frame with red archival ink.  This is a flat stamp and it's picked up the texture on the card stock, which is quite a pretty effect.  Like that.  I stamped Pokey Dog in place with black ink, to save cutting out all those tricky bits, then stamped him again on a fun colour scrap, fussy cut and placed him on the card.  I stamped Carmen's Veranda Happy Birthday and I was told there would be cake sentiments, cos what's a birthday without cake!!!

 
I hope the new year has brought you new inspiration and creativity.  The Lost Coast Designs team will be sharing bright and cheerful all month, so do hop over to check out their awesome makes and join the fun.
 
Thanks for dropping by.   Hugz

    There is so much to love about your card. First, I'm a dog person so there's that. Also, I think that is the coolest paper piecing. It had me puzzled till I read the details. It's also interesting how the circle picked up the texture of the paper. It has those raggedy edges so the effect is perfect. I'm so glad you shared with us at Double D!
