if I bring more love into a thing, it will pay off.
Here is my sweet lab, Princess Nikki, pining over... not her dad, and not her puppies, here she is pining over her tennis ball!! I just got this stamp Saturday and I am super excited to use it. I think I will make some guy cards like this.
I learned a lot of things on this challenge about coloring and patience. I also learned that to do layers like this, I need to be more precise next time. I don't like the way the pattern doesn't line up exactly.
It helps that I LOVE Island Indigo. The wisteria wonder is the shadowing beneath Nikki's paws.
Oh well, I have to be done with this. I need to go to work!
Thanks for taking a closer look. I dug really deep for this and I love how it turned out. DH loves his dog, and he loves bright colors -- so I think he will love this card too.

Lela, I LOVE your card. That stamp looks just like my Lab, Bailey, who is passed, but he was just SO full of life. Now we have a Golden Retriever whom we adore, too, but I still miss my Bailey. Your card is going straight into my faves!
