I kept the layout (though changing the direction of the diagonal cut) but used different images, colors, and paper.
This is also my entry for the Alphabet Challenge letter S for sympathy.
My friend sadly lost her dog so I needed a sympathy card. I found this image of the dog online, sized and printed it. I did soft sponging around it after die cutting it into a circle. I die cut a mat from gold mirror paper. I only had the paw print paper and wanted something to go on the top part. I decided to stamp the dogs from Loads of Love accessories repeatedly across the paper and then used gold embossing powder to create my top panel.
Gold ribbon across the diagonal added more shine. I heat embossed the sentiment and punched it out, matted it, and popped it up with dimensionals.
Thanks for looking!

What an elegant pet sympathy card this is Catherine. I love this dog image and the rich papers you used here. The diagonal card design is fabulous and makes this a real standout! It is so hard to say good bye to our pet friends, but I know this gorgeous card will really be appreciated by the recipients. ~Karen.
