This is my card for cc371. Julia is our hostess and she chose a neutral color palette for this week – basic gray-sahara sand and white. We are using stripes for dessert.
My cute little doggie image is a new set being released this week from Marks Finest Papers – “Fabulous Dogs”.
I colored my doggie with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I fussy cut him and popped him up on a Spellbinders oval circle.
My card base is basic gray and then I used some old SU sahara sand dsp from the “holiday lounge” collection.
On my middle rectangle panel I used the technique from Monday’s “technique challenge”. It is called magical masking. I used masking tape and basic gray ink and created some diagonal stripes.
I die cut 3 banners with the MFT “banner day die”. My sentiment is from the same “fabulous dogs” set. I used some paw buttons to complete my card.
