I made this cute little card for our cute little neighber which will be turning 2 this Saturday. We have a pet golden retriever and when ever she is outside or looking out the window she is always asking where our "sophie" is, she just adores her, so I thought I would do puppies for her birthday card.
I missed the exact sizes for this sketch but hopefully close enough. I water colored these guys, then sponged the clouds, and added lots of sparkles cause little ones, (ok some of us bigger ones too...lol...) love sparklesadded the framing and layers, printed out the sentiment just off on my notepad on the computer, added the little pawprints which are rub ons, and the little heart by the sentiment.
I wanted a touch of black around the corners or edges to balance the pink and black and no matter what i tried with brads, corners in black cut out or buttons, couldnt get what i wanted so did the old dot border. hope it works..thanks for visiting...:0)

What an adorable and very thoughtful card for your lucky little neighbor! The little dalmations are just perfect for a polka dot spotted card! So sweet!

Oh, Olivia is going to love this! It reminds me of when my DD was little and we had a Dalmations themed party for her and her little preschool friends. Those were the days.
