I know. I know. You're wondering whatever possessed me to make such a pooo...er, I mean...goofy card. Well, believe it or not, it's all Itsapassion's fault. Yes! It's true! You see, Anne challenged our Doubledog Dare group to use newspaper on our card this week, and for some reason, a dog doing his business on a newspaper is what came to mind. Actually, jdmommy has to accept some of the blame, too. You see, she made this exceptionally cute card using newspaper (you can see her card here: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers) and it's what prompted me to think of how newspaper is used in real life! I'm sure my buddy Anne will be proud that she helped to inspire this goofy card.
You wanna know what I used to make the doggy doo-doo? I used the little floral stamp from Loads of Love Accessories and colored the flowers in with various shades of browns so that the pile didn't look like flowers, and then I cut it in half. Popped one side up on dimensionals.
Oh, how I hope Schirmcat sees this card as it is important to me that I remain on her naughty list! Kelly, you out there somewhere, gf?

You area a goof, but good job with this card showcaseing something most of us are all to familiar with!! I walked DD's dog yesterday, and she did it right in the middle of the creek...too late to stop her!!
I think I'll just stick to my flowers being flowers though, but thanks for the grin!!

ROTFLMAO! And to think I inspired you!! How awful is that????? I hate to say this, but one of my ideas was the bottom of a birdcage, but couldn't figure out how to do it!! This is really clever, GF! Not for everyone, but any of us Naughty Girls would love it! Great job!!

So cute, love your doggy, poo and all. Great coloring and clouds. Good to see someone else has the same sicky sense of humor as me. This dog has better aim than my Yorkie, she misses her paper, sometimes.
