AL_SILVER2 {Alanna} is this week's featured stamper....Have to admit I have never been to her gallery before. What a wonderful one she has! I chose this one to caseÂ…Â…detailsÂ….
Kept the layout pretty close but changed the theme. You see it is a daily adventure talking with my DD, you never know what she is wanting to try next. Her and new DH want to get a hot dog card. As fate would have it, the day she told me about it a cartoon appeared in the newspaper and the rest is history! hehe
I drew this little scene with the help of the cartoon, added the trash can, little Ginger dog and bushes. Layered this on white cs sponged barn door. Also added the faux stitching.
For the bg panel I googled “how to draw a hot dog” and found this one already colored and it was free. So I copy, pasted and resized it several times for the bg. Printed it out and versa marked and clear eb only the hot dogs. Made a few extras to pop up.
Well Alanna enjoy your day. Hope you like my card. Oh by the way, DD is already on to something else. Best get this card in the mail fast! hehe Â…Â…TFL! :0)

Oh no - here I come absolutely stuffed after dinner and I see this tempting scene before my eyes. I'd love to try a real American hotdog, I am sure that ours are not a patch on them, and the Continental ones, while lovely, are...different.
I'll settle for giving that adorable little dog a cuddle.

Okay, leave it to you to DRAW the card!!!! Fabulous design, and I LOVE your coloring! FABULOUS card! !!!!! BIG WOW!!!!
A hot dog cart, huh? A neighbor of ours has one. He started out with the cart 3 years ago, and was renting a small apartment. He had to borrow his brother's truck to pull the cart, that he MADE out of cast offs from garage sales! Now, he OWNS a NEW truck, paid in CASH, bought a new cart with AIR CONDITIONING!!!bought his house, and just got married. Three years certainly changed his life! I hope your daughter and her husband can be as successful!

super cute card I hate to admit it I love hot dogs!!! Mainly the Costco dog...
Having BBQ for 30 today for BD. It's Judy's jaydekays birthday too but she is not doing the best right now so will take the food down the road to her... It's fun to have a neighbor and BFF the same age as your hubby he's is about 2 hours older.. Sure wish I had the HOT DOG cart to use..

fantastic card Cathy, I'm always happy to see one of your cards in the gallery. They are sure to bring a big smile to my face and I'm sure to everyone. I love that you draw your images if you don't have the stamps, so creative, you rock and so does your scene... TFS
