I made this card for my friend Donna who just lost her dear dachshund, Gracie Gumdrops, on July 13th. What a difficult loss this is for them. I have this wonderful dog sympathy stamp set from ODBD and when I saw the paw prints with the sentiment, that is what I decided to do for the card then. I sponged a sky using cool carribean ink and a StampinUp Scalloped circle punch for clouds. The other elements were punched and die cut. Then I realized this card also works for the letter P alphabet challenge for Pet sympathy. This was a fairly quick and easy card to make which is nice when we need something fast. Thanks for looking! ~Karen.

A lovely CAS design and that sentiment is so true. I'm sorry your friend lost her dear pet, that is so hard. Your sponged sky background is lovely and I like the glittery paw print.
