Carla is our hostess this week for the WTUI challenge - which you can find HERE. I had made a sample especially for it, but somehow it's a bit meh, so the two birthday cards I made for late July birthdays both fit the bill and I like them much better.
This one is for a work colleague, who describes her little dog as looking like Marty Feldman, so I reckoned the Crazy Dogs were a good choice. I had a gel printing session yesterday, and this uses a print from that, plus the green from the edge of another print for the grass. I inked the brick wall ef with grey before embossing to create the brick wall. The leaves are an old Spellbinders leaf, embossed and sanded and creased to shape. The sunflower is an old MFT die, cut from Bazzill Bling, and with a layer of Stickles underneath the seed centre. I heat-embossed the sentiment. Actually, I did it on vellum first for an overlay, but when I die-cut it, all the embossing peeled off, so this was plan B. The dog was stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks (brushed corduroy, vintage photo, peacock feathers, tattered rose and black soot) and fussy cut.
